This UNGA committee aims to discuss what is sometimes ignored when it comes to Weapons of Mass Destruction - the impact of the usage on victims. It discusses the impacts of this type of warfare on the physical, psychological and environmental domains. It emphasizes the importance of existing treaties, along with the role of the UNGA in addressing the issues discussed in them. Besides that, rapid response systems for WMD attacks are discussed, including medical and psychological assistance, humanitarian and refugee programs. The committee will also discuss the main points arising from the topic of disarmament and non-proliferation, with the main goals of recognizing the right of WMD victims to medical and psychological care, long term rehabilitation programs, and strong legal and institutional frameworks to avoid incidents and hold perpetrators accountable.
