A Main Press Center will also be set up. Topics to be deliberated include Peacekeeping and Peace Building, Internet Freedom & Regulations, Countering Terrorism & Protection of Human Rights, 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development through International Cooperation, Women Empowerment and Gender Equality, and Climate Change and Rights of Development.

This year’s CNMUN plans to invite 500 to 600 delegates and observers. UN officials and senior Chinese diplomats will also be invited to attend the conference and serve as judges.
