Extra Funding For Education
A resolution to promote funding and the development of education and the arts.
Category: Education and Creativity
Area of Effect: Educational
Proposed by: Copetopia
Description: The purpose of this proposal is to urge all members of the World Assembly to take a hard look at their Educational programs. An influx of fresh funds to your Educational Program's can only have a positive effect.
A higher quality education system will mean more educated citizens who are capable of handling bigger work loads.
An educated populace can take Scientific, Military and Auto Industries to a whole new level. Imagine the things you could do with an advanced Scientific program?
The more brilliant minds, the better. While putting extra money into Education now is a cost, the long-term payoff is worth it.
In districts that substantially increased their educational spending, low-income children were significantly more likely to graduate from high school, earn livable wages, and avoid poverty in adulthood.
Isn't that better for any Economy? Poverty is present in any nation. Educating the people can only have a positive result in that area.
In conclusion, putting more money into Education will help you raise your poverty line, create more jobs, see new and bright inventions become commonplace and every industry will benefit both monetarily and technically.
Even the poorest nations can invest in this idea. Even a minimal influx into the program can have terrific results. Once you have an educated populace, you can put those minds to use in building up your economy.
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." -Nelson Mandela

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.
Category: Furtherment of Democracy
Strength: Significant
Proposed by: Vandtretta
Description: Viewing With Appreciation the immense strides in human rights, and international peace that has been a result of the strong verbiage of many proposals that have been passed by this body.
Reaffirming that the World Assembly should maintain a dominant legal status throughout all member states. However;
Deeply disturbed that the World Assembly oversteps boundaries, and undermines the authority of member states in appropriate respects and circumstances.
Taking into consideration that although many resolutions are vital to maintaining peace, and international stability; they obstruct individual member states from passing legislation that best fits their circumstances.
Regretting the passing of General Assembly Resolution #346, as this piece of legislation molests the inherent rights of individual nation states from enforcing legislation that is appropriate for said member's needs, and requirements.
Disturbed that many World Assembly Members, and Delegates state that it was the national interest of the respective nation to apply for membership in the World Assembly.
Reminding the World Assembly that most regions require membership to the World Assembly prior to accepting citizenship.
Also reminding the World Assembly that nations should not be enjoined by the agendas of other countries to submit to their own beliefs, when it does not relate to the strengthening of human rights, civil liberties, or political freedom.
This October, of the year 2015, the General Assembly of the World Assembly hereby enacts the following piece of legislation.
1. Condemns nations who submit partisan proposals, and force upon other nations their own political agenda.
2. Calls upon member states to halt in their exercises of submitting proposals that will warrant for the legislation of policies that do not correspond or ally with enduring human rights, civil liberties, and political freedom.
3. Authorizes the condemnation of member states who fail to abide by this piece of legislation.
Stability and Information Act
A resolution to restrict political freedoms in the interest of law and order.
Category: Political Stability

Condemning NGOs for directly attacking the sovereignty of states under duress.
Worried by the increasingly unstable global environment.
Calling on all states to favor political and social stability over access to information in order to prevent escalation.
The World Assembly formally calls on all nations to:
1. Prioritize the well being of their people and governments by restricting access to information deemed harmful
2. Ban all defamation of the state during times of armed conflict or economic and political instability.
3. Support neighboring states in their pursuit of political stability.
4. Avoid the manipulation of information in order to de-stabilize other nations.
5. Take measures to discourage all actions by fear mongers against the stability of the state during armed conflict or economic and political instability.

Dear Delegates,
I have the pleasure of representing Europe Oriental and The Republic of Tasmodin before you and your esteemed colleagues. We all are here to represent our region and nation, whether it is pressing for Human Rights, protecting the environment, or any other way to make the World a better place. We are here to bear testimony that in a world of wars, oppression, and genocide, there are people who try their best and fight for what they believe in. I know how valuable your time is, so I'll keep this short.
I have submitted a proposal, entitled "Free Movement Agreement" that will (in essence) promote tourism, boost international economies, create a diverse, unique culture, and foster a philosophy of acceptance throughout World Assembly member states. This proposal will bring us one step closer (but still far away) from a utopia. I am messaging you, the representatives of the World Assembly community, to convince you why you should support the proposal. Below you will find the benefits of this deal which I have arranged into 5 main points.
1. Promotes tourism which will support your economy by providing extra income.
2. Creates a diverse, understanding culture through exploring new things.
3. Signifies unity amongst World Assembly member states by allowing (mostly) free travel.
4. Enables member states to cooperate and collaborate with one another.
5. Creates a more universal and extremely secure passport design amongst member states by implementing biometric applications.
Misconceptions about this Proposal are:
1. that it is forced down the throats of member states, however this proposal recognizes the right of a country to defend it's territorial integrity and therefore choose not to participate in this program.
2. that criminals will enter your borders, however this proposal creates the International Criminal Police Organization which collaborates with all countries to keep them safe (for more information, read 4.E)
I thank you for your time reading this and hope you will approve this proposal. If you still have any doubts about this proposal, do not hesitate to respond to this telegram and I will try to clear up any misconceptions or answer any questions that you may have.
Signed,
Regional Delegate of Europe Oriental
The Republic of Tasmodin
