Topic 1: Global Access to Reproductive Health Services
Availability to the use of contraception has become a pressing issue and is now deemed as a human right in which everyone (mainly women) should receive. With contraception women can avoid serious issues such as death at birth, contracting a sexually transmitted disease, and not being prepared for motherhood. Not only should contraception be available to all women and men all over the globe, but advanced sexual education should be just as available. Giving women the availability to contraception without education is like giving a child a piece of technology without explaining it. In many countries where contraception is legal and available, the women do not use it to correctly or to their full advantage. Contraception and the efficient teaching of sexual education must exist in every independent nation despite their overall religious values or monetary funds to ensure the well being of all woman and children because it is their right as a human.
The current issues at hand when it comes to contraception around the globe are colossal. Due to the lack of availability of contraception and sexual education, issues range from deaths at birth, STD contractions, failed abortions that affect the child, and ultimately a harder life for many women and their children. Without contraception available at hand for all women, hardships in raising children are multiplied by disease, lack of preparation for a child, and emotional distress within the family. However, it becomes increasingly difficult to fix such issues with adversities such as: lack of money, opposition for religious and social issues, and educational undernourishment. The issue of making contraception universal, has several issues of its own that all must be tackled in different ways.
The Delegation of Lebanon would be pleased to address the main problem that it is affected by when it comes to this topic. Despite the extensive availability of contraception in Lebanon, seldom are the Lebanese contraception connoisseurs. Lebanese women have contraception accessible to them, but cope with issues such as starting birth control on the incorrect day, contain fears that it may cause cancer and other diseases, and prefer illegal abortion procedures due to their lack of knowledge. With concerns so immense in quantity that are present with the receptiveness to contraception, the controversial endeavors for those nations that have no access to these resources must be imaginable.
Contraception should be available to everyone in every country despite the mother country's religious or social ideals to promote the health and well-being of everyone. Means of funding for every individual country's contraception and education programs should be self reliant unless willingly contributed to by foreign nations. Prior to budgeting for contraception, nation's must take into consideration the different forms of it and which may be most beneficial for their country. For example, in South Africa more funding should go to condoms rather than birth control to take into consideration the spread of HIV AIDS. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Nigerian birth rates are expanding at a large rate for women who have attempted to prevent pregnancy, which could be more efficiently prevented through the use of birth control due to its meager failure rates. In order to maintain every woman and child's rights to reproductive health and connection to all forms of contraception, social beliefs must be compromised, money must be efficiently handled autonomously, and different forms of contraception must be strategically established in each individual countries based on their utmost dire needs.
Accessibility to birth control and other forms of reproductive health are imperative to conserving the rights of women. Across the globe citizens may not contain convenience to the assets of contraception, possess openness to the rights of use of contraception, or embody the expertise of how contraception can positively impact their lives. Out of all 196 countries on this planet, all should provide the knowledge and literal products of contraception to their citizens to fulfill their duty of providing the inhabitants with their rights. Prior to the presentation of these products and wisdom, each individual country must set aside their communal and spiritual principles and their own financial plan that incorporates the contraceptive products. Then they may implement the contraceptive commodities that are most viable and feasible for their country, subordinate upon their past.
Topic 2: Fair Treatment in Issues of Eminent Domain
Eminent domain, or compulsory purchase, is utilized all over the world. It is the act of the home country compensating individual property owners for their land so that it may be used for the public. This becomes a controversial issue when you look at how different countries use it. In some countries, eminent domain is negotiable in the price the government will compensate, or if the act of it will even occurred, whereas in other countries the landowner has no option but to release their land for the first given value of compensation. In order to solved the eminent domain problems occurring across the globe, the issue must be addressed in that it should be left up to the national government to decide a reasonable price to compensate their citizens, and the citizens must comply and understand that the government only has what is best for their country in mind. However, regulations must be set by the United Nations to ensure that each standard of compensation is justified for the parties on both ends.
Eminent domain is necessary for proper community development. The publicly available resources eminent domain can help to bring about can help any country grow in its global economic standpoint and local humanitarian status. Eminent domain can especially help countries that have not yet began to develop on an extensive spectrum to eventually become large-scale economic players. The issue arises when the government abuses its power and does not fairly compensate the private land owner for their property. Therefore, eminent domain is incredibly helpful and needed, and should be restricted on the end of the government so that the necessary power of it is not taken away all together, but compromised to ensure fairness.
The Delegation of Lebanon utilizes the power of eminent domain, and requires that the citizens of Lebanon accept our first offered compensation. Despite the issues with eminent domain across the globe, it cannot be completely deterred as it heavily aids developing nations in economic, social, and political growth. Although we have not had extremely prominent issues of abuse with this policy, we have seen it occur in several other small nations; mainly in Asia and Africa.
In order to fix the issues of abusing this policy that originally had positive intentions, there must be standards set by the United Nations that classify a certain area by square foot warranting a certain amount of payment. I believe this solution will be accepted by other nations. The United Nations will set standards that are just to both parties; the standards will make economic sense and be logical for success. For this reason, other nations will accept the new policies and because it is what is best for their people.
