× The Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) is one of the six principal organs of the United Nations, responsible for promoting international economic and social cooperation and development. As a key platform for fostering dialogue and innovation, ECOSOC brings together policymakers, academics, and stakeholders from across the globe to address issues that shape the economic and social well-being of nations. With a mandate that spans sustainable development, economic growth, and social progress, ECOSOC plays a pivotal role in driving inclusive and equitable global advancement.

× The agenda for this session — “Deliberation on the Socioeconomic Impact of Rising Tariff Wars and Trade Protectionism on Global Development and Economic Equity” — focuses on one of the most pressing economic challenges of our time. In recent years, tariff wars and increasing protectionist policies have disrupted global trade flows, strained diplomatic relations, and disproportionately impacted developing economies. Delegates will explore the broader consequences of these measures on international development, including slowed economic growth, widened inequalities, and reduced access to essential goods and services. The discussion will also emphasize the need for collaborative economic frameworks that promote fair trade, resilience, and sustainable growth. This agenda encourages participants to assess not only the immediate economic implications but also the long-term impact on global cooperation and equity.
