United Nations International Court of Justice
Every individual is entitled to justice, a fundamental right upheld by the International Court of Justice. Within this committee, we engage in profound discussions addressing some of the world's most pressing issues, spanning topics such as ownership, economic disparities, genocide, human rights, terrorism, and other compelling conversations. Formally instituted by the UN Charter in 1945, the International Court of Justice commenced its operations in 1946, succeeding the Permanent Court of International Justice that had been in operation at the Peace Palace since 1922.
Topic A
Trial of Pakistani Prisoners of War (Pakistan v. India)
