Two Days of Powerful Deliberation

Sustainability, as the word suggests, is meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Since the inception of the concept of sustainability, traced back to the Club of Rome of 1968, the word has grown to encompass a humongous spectrum of socio-economic, political and environmental matters. And with the 2015 UNSDG declaration, Sustainable Development had become a buzzword. The whole idea is about a global phenomenon aiming at realizing a world, that is just a better place to be.  However, this remains no easy feat. One requires mass participation and global cooperation to accomplish something of this scale. But really, how do we do that? Our best bet, is inclusiveness, the policy of providing equal access to opportunities for people who might otherwise be excluded or marginalized, for reasons like having physical or mental disabilities or belonging to other minority groups. Global Inclusiveness is the first step toward Global Sustainability. Today, there are almost 140 developing countries seeking ways of meeting their development needs, but with the ever-increasing threat of climate change and the issue of rising social tensions, sustainability and inclusiveness have developed into a desperate need of the hour. And so is why, after much deliberation, the same has been chosen for BBMUN 2022-23’s theme. We wish to manifest a platform for incubating solutions and outreaching this urgency as far and wide as possible. We are the next generation; we are the torchbearers of sustainability. We can proudly say that we will make a difference.
