Committee Description

The Disarmament and International Security Committee (DISEC) is the First Committee of the United Nations General Assembly. Established in 1945, it focuses on issues concerning global peace, disarmament, and international security. DISEC addresses topics such as nuclear disarmament, arms control, regional security, and the regulation of weapons of mass destruction. It plays a crucial role in formulating resolutions and agreements aimed at reducing global militarization and preventing armed conflict. While its resolutions are non-binding, DISEC influences the discourse on international security issues, encouraging collaboration among member states to create a safer world.
