Beginners committee
Disarmament, Demobilisation, and Reintegration in the Wake of the Syrian Civil War’s Collapse
The collapse of the Syrian Civil War has left behind fragmented armed groups, widespread weapon proliferation, and weakened state institutions. Delegates will examine how the international community can support disarmament, demobilization, and the reintegration of former combatants while promoting long-term peace, accountability, and national stability.
Discussions will consider the roles of the United Nations, regional actors, humanitarian organisations, and the Syrian government in preventing renewed conflict and ensuring a sustainable transition to peace.
