GSL-1 (1980s) :
Thank you dais for giving me the floor
Respected chair , distinguished delegates
Today, I am representing New Zealand during a historic time in our global health
history: the 1980s, when the HIV/AIDS epidemic emerged as a massive disaster
affecting millions.
As we face this problem, we must recognize the tragic impact that this disease has had
on individuals, families, and communities around the world. In New Zealand, we have
witnessed firsthand the stigma around HIV/AIDS, which frequently prevents those
infected from seeking care.
We must prioritize education and awareness in order to battle stigma and foster
understanding. Public health campaigns are critical for breaking down barriers and
increasing acceptance, allowing people to come forward for testing and treatment.
Furthermore, access to healthcare and effective treatment are essential. New Zealand
encourages worldwide collaboration to ensure that life-saving antiretroviral treatments
are available.
Finally, let us emphasize the value of community involvement. Grassroots organizations

play an important role in providing support and services while also empowering
individuals affected to advocate for their health.
Together we can turn the tide against the HIV/AIDS epidemic

1 )Addressing the Stigma, Misconceptions, and Discrimination
related to the HIV/AIDS epidemic :
Honorable chair, respected delegates
HIV is a disease which already has many backlashes. Over 2 million people
worldwide live with HIV.
Stigma remains a significant barrier to care. Negative stigmas as well as
misconceptions about HIV make it even more harder for infected victims to test for it.
These negative stigmas and discriminations include :
Refusing to provide healthcare services
Refusing casual contact with someone with HIV
Isolating a member of a community because they have HIV
Addressing the HIV infected as "dirty" and arguing that people deserve to get HIV
because of their decisions
And Lastly, Media coverage sensationalized HIV/AIDS by highlighting its association

with homosexuality and drug use which reinforced negative stereotypes and fostered a
culture of blame and fear.
New Zealand urges in advocating the prevention of discrimination, misconceptions as

well as negative stigmas related to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. Unitedly, we can take
decisive measures to ensure the rights of the HIV infected
Thank you
Discussing the barriers created by the lack of research, technical
assistance, and training in medical sectors

Honorable chair , esteemed delegates
As the delegate of New Zealand, I'd like to address a significant issue in the
HIV/AIDS epidemic: the limitations caused by a lack of medical research, technical
help, and training.
We are encountering enormous hurdles in understanding and treating HIV/AIDS.

Due to a lack of research, we are unable to establish effective prevention tactics and
treatment protocols. Research on HIV/AIDS is still in its infancy, leading to gaps in
knowledge about the virus, its transmission, and effective treatment options. As a
result, many healthcare providers lack the required information to assist patients
impacted.
Moreover , without proper technical assistance, healthcare systems, particularly in

resource-constrained contexts, are struggling to implement effective interventions.
This lack of support is resulting in inequities in care, denying many people access to
essential services.
In addition, Training for medical professionals is insufficient, leading to

misunderstandings about the disease and its transmission.
New Zealand calls for more international collaboration to prioritize research and
technical training. Unitedly, we can strengthen the healthcare response, empower
our medical personnel, and ultimately improve outcomes for those infected by
HIV/AIDS.
Thank you
Determining ways to prevent the further spread of HIV
in most affected regions
Honorable chair , esteemed delegates
The state of new zealand would want to highlight the urgent need to identify
effective strategies to limit the spread of HIV in the most afflicted areas
We must acknowledge the significance of targeted public health efforts.

Educating the population about HIV transmission and prevention is critical
for dispelling myths and reducing stigma. We can launch outreach
campaigns aimed at high-risk populations, ensuring they have access to
appropriate information and resources.
In addition, improving access to testing and treatment services is critical.

We must develop widely accessible clinics and mobile testing units,
particularly in rural and underserved areas, to guarantee that everyone
receives the care they require.
Furthermore, We must invest in research to create novel prevention

techniques, such as vaccines and long-acting medications.
New Zealand is ready to work with all nations to adopt these measures,
ensuring that we effectively combat the spread of HIV and preserve the
health of our people.
Thank you
Discussing the role of international organizations and NGOs
in raising public awareness and conducting public health
campaigns :
respected chair , distinguished delegates
As the delegate of New Zealand I would like to draw attention to the crucial role
that NGOs and international organizations play in educating the public and
implementing successful public health initiatives especially in the battle against
HIV/AIDS.
When the HIV/AIDS epidemic first surfaced, groups like World Health
Organization and NGOs moved quickly to the public. Their efforts provide
critical information regarding transmission, prevention, and treatment,
removing myths and lowering stigma.
These organizations have the unique ability to mobilize resources, engage

communities, and create appealing messaging that resonates across broad
organizations. Through establishing relationships with nearby communities,
they enable people to take responsibility for their health and speak up for
their rights
International organizations are also essential in ensuring that public health

programs are culturally aware and customized to fit the unique requirements
of different regions. This is crucial for addressing the particular difficulties
marginalized groups, who are frequently the most diagnosed by HIV/AIDS,
experience.
New Zealand strongly supports the collaboration between governments,

international organizations, and NGOs. By working together, we can amplify
our efforts, increase awareness, and ultimately improve health outcomes for
those infected my HIV/ AIDS . THANK YOU
Discussing the importance of international collaboration for
funds and investments.

respected chair , honorable delegates
New zealand emphasizes the critical importance of international collaboration

for funding and investments in our ongoing battle against HIV/AIDS.
The size of this global epidemic requires a coordinated international

response. The complex issues created by HIV/AIDS cannot be resolved by one
country acting alone. We can create complete programs that successfully
address prevention, treatment, and support services by combining our
resources and experience.
Working together across international borders enables us to provide

resources where they are most needed, especially in underprivileged areas
with inadequate healthcare facilities. Developing novel therapies and
preventative measures, such as vaccines that have the potential to alter the
trajectory of the pandemic, requires significant investments in research and
innovation.
Collaborating also promotes best practices and knowledge sharing. Nations

may benefit from one other's experiences, both positive and negative, to make
our responses more successful overall.
All member states are urged by New Zealand to increase their dedication to
global relationships. Collectively, We can raise the funds required to fight
HIV/AIDS, lessen its effects, and guarantee that everyone has access to the
care they require.
Thank you.
