Topic Summary: Abolishing Modern Slavery
Director’s Letter
Hello fellow delegates! My name is Risako Tomita, and I am delighted to have you at our 2023 Japan Metropolitan Model United Nations conference! I will be the director for this year’s Intermediate 1 committee. I was born in Tokyo and lived in Washington D.C. for four years, and currently attend Senzoku Gakuen High School. I started Model United Nations in my first year of junior high school, which means I am in my fourth year as a delegate. Though the pandemic became an obstacle for MUN conferences I planned to attend, I am looking forward to future conferences. The topic for this year’s committee is modern slavery. Despite treaties and UN resolutions that combat this topic exists, it still remains a problem in both developed and developing countries. I hope delegates in this conference will brainstorm innovative solutions, while also socializing with others to gain new perspectives. I look forward to seeing you in March, and please feel free to contact us if you have any questions!
Sincerely,
Risako Tomita
Director,
Office of the High Commissioner of Human Rights
