The First Committee of the General Assembly addresses disarmament and international security matters. This beginner committee tackles emerging challenges including the weaponization of private aerospace assets, mega-satellite constellations, and the need for international space governance frameworks.
As a beginner committee, GA1 (DISEC) provides an excellent introduction to disarmament and security discussions. This committee explores the emerging threats posed by the weaponization of private aerospace assets and mega-constellations in orbit.
Delegates will represent UN member states in discussions on space security, examine the risks of privatized space militarization, and develop frameworks for peaceful space governance. Address how satellite mega-constellations can be weaponized and create international standards preventing an arms race in space.
Our experienced chairing team will guide delegates through complex discussions on space law, private sector regulation, and international cooperation on disarmament. Background guides on space security, satellite technology, and current space governance challenges will be provided in advance.
