MUNA 2009 Compulsory Ice Breaker Resolution

This assembly

a) acknowledges that the burden of the current global financial crisis is distributed unevenly, hurting particularly developing countries affected by recessions in richer nations;

b) demands that the General Assembly Economic Crisis Summit (June 2009) include active participation by developing nations;

c) urges that the upcoming summit ensures it is more than a "talk fest" and aims to fix the deeper structural problems in global economy management for the benefit of all nations.

Note : This resolution will be the "ice breaker" and will be debated first, with the participation of every nation. Time allowed : one minute only.
