The country of Chile fears that the issue of education in conflict and post-conflict zones is a serious issue around the globe.

2
00:00:06,540 --> 00:00:10,240
For children living in conflict zones, education has become even more dangerous.

3
00:00:11,419 --> 00:00:18,620
In 2020, there were 535 attacks on schools, an increase of 17% compared to 2019.

4
00:00:19,460 --> 00:00:22,500
Chile has been working with the UN to solve this problem.

5
00:00:23,039 --> 00:00:27,739
In 2015, Chile became a signatory of the Safe of School Declaration.

6
00:00:27,739 --> 00:00:37,740
This declaration provides the country the opportunity to express political support for the protection of students, teachers and schools during times of armed conflict.

7
00:00:37,740 --> 00:00:41,740
The sponsors of this resolution were Norway and Argentina.

8
00:00:41,740 --> 00:00:51,740
We suggest to the Committee to help the access of education in the conflict zones for a better world.

9
00:00:51,740 --> 00:01:00,740
And we suggest to the United Nations to create an international fund to provide a new system of job shadowing and textbook donations.

10
00:01:00,740 --> 00:01:08,739
In summary, our country, Chile, thinks that we need to show our much-needed side to those children that have lost their childhood due to the war.

00:01:08,739 --> 00:01:11,739
Thanks. We now turn to the Norwiches.
