DISEC is one of the largest and most politically charged committees in MUN. It deals with global peace and security but without the hard-power tools of the Security Council. This means debates center on disarmament, arms control, emerging military technologies, and conflict prevention — all through diplomacy, consensus, and long-term strategy.

Because every member state has a seat, DISEC becomes a battlefield of competing interests: major powers pushing their agendas, small states defending their security concerns, and blocs trying to shape norms on everything from cyberwarfare to conventional arms. Expect packed speaking lists, active lobbying, and negotiations that test your patience and creativity.

Committee Dynamics & Expectations

DISEC debates can be dense, competitive, and politically layered. Delegates must balance national security priorities with global calls for restraint, all while working within the slow, consensus-driven nature of the General Assembly.

You’ll be expected to:

• Present arguments backed by military, scientific, or historical evidence — not just political statements.
• Understand how emerging technologies (AI weapons, drones, cyber tools, etc.) reshape security dilemmas.
• Navigate heavy bloc politics, especially between major powers and regional coalitions.
• Draft solutions that are realistic, implementable, and mindful of states’ sovereignty and defense capabilities.

Since DISEC resolutions are not binding, their strength comes from diplomacy, broad support, and language that sets global expectations for years to come.

Key Features:

1. Security Without the Veto:
   Unlike the UNSC, no state can unilaterally block action. This forces actual negotiation, coalition-building, and compromise.
2. Large-Scale Multilateral Politics:
   With every member state at the table, debates are louder, broader, and more diverse. Building momentum requires networking, persuasion, and timing.
3. Arms Control & Technology Focus:
   DISEC is the GA’s hub for discussing conventional weapons, WMDs, cybersecurity, autonomous systems, space militarization, and more.
4. Norm Creation Over Enforcement:
   Resolutions don’t impose legal obligations, but they shape global discourse and influence future treaties, doctrines, and defense policies.
5. Emphasis on Feasible, Balanced Solutions:
   States guard their security interests fiercely. Successful clauses avoid extremes and aim for practical steps that states can realistically implement.
