Topic A: Equal access to education for female
Gender inequality in education has been an age-old issue in India. Although the British invaded India in the 17th century, they carried out a tremendous reform in every aspect including education leading to improvements of the educational status of women. However, it wasn’t enough. Since the independence in 1950, India has paid great attention to this problem and definitely made some progress. India will continue to devote to gender equality in education because if women are educated, the standard of living will be elevated, the economic condition of the country will also rise and humanity and equality will be widely spread. So the key to the better developing of India in long terms is to achieve gender equality by education. Under no circumstances will India stop pursuing equal access to education for female.
India has set many policies to improve the situation with considerable gains. Since 1951, every five year plan highlighted the importance of education for female. In 1959, the report of The National Committee on Women’s Education demanded that suitable atmosphere should be created for greater enrolment of girls, for greater efforts by voluntary organizations, for more provision for scholarships for girls at all stages and particularly at university stage. In 1968, a National Policy on Education was released to ensure equal educational opportunity for male and female. In 1985, the government of Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi introduced a new National Policy on Education which called for special emphasis on the removal of disparities in order to equalize educational opportunity, especially for Indian women. All these policies indicated that the India government has attached significance to education for female. They also showed the government’s determination to reach gender equality in education.
At the international level, The United Nations Educational,Scientific and Cultural Organization has released documentations and held forums related to the problem in the past decades. In 1980s, The Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women pointed out females had the right to get education. In 1995, The Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action aimed to solve problems of women education. In 2006, the UN held the 50th Commission on the Status of Women put emphasis on women education. They all stressed the importance of gender equality in education, stating that females are entitled to get education.
As the economy of India is developing at a rapid pace, India government is willing to
make even more efforts to reach the goal eventually. India government is willing to set more policies to put priority on education for female in the future. More expenditure will be put on education and the government will allocate at least 6% GDP for education in every coming year instead of around 4%. The government will work with the press and media to spread the importance of gender equality in education, for changing people’s thoughts is the fundamental way. India will also actively participate in global conferences and forums held by the UN and execute the documentations set by the UN. Furthermore, India will support and cooperate with other countries if their goal is to alleviate gender disparity. India sincerely hopes that not only gender equality in education, but also gender equality in all fields will be achieved in the future.

Topic:Organ Trafficking
The organ trafficking market is on the rise, fuelled by growing demand as well as unscrupulous traffickers. While waiting lists for organs become longer in rich countries,selling one’s organ in a country of excruciating poverty is an irresistible temptation. This increase is attributed to poverty and corruption and has taken place despite legislation aimed against organ trafficking. Poverty is seen in all countries with a large black market for organs,yet legislation is another contributing factor in the illegal organ trade domestically, especially legislation with loopholes.
The international community has long paid attention to the issue of organ trafficking. Regarding the international organ transplantation affairs,there have also been a number of resolutions that makes significant efforts to combat trafficking,such as WHO Guiding Principles on Human Cell,Tissue And Organ Transplantation(2010) and ECOSOC Resolution 2004/22.The United Nations urges member states,which ascertain that such a phenomenon exists in their country, to adopt the necessary measures to prevent, combat and punish the illicit removal of and trafficking in human organs. As a country that commits to the advancement and protection of human rights,Algeria gives strong backing to the elimination of illicit organ trafficking.
Algerian children are taken to other countries, including Morocco, and their organs are removed and trafficked to Israel and the US. One non-governmental organization estimates that the populations most vulnerable to trafficking include between 10,000 and 15,000 illegal sub-Saharan African migrants. Organ trafficking has been a problem in Algeria and caught high concern of the government.In February 2009, the government of Algeria amended the section of its existing Criminal Code on crimes against the person to include increased penalties for the crime of trafficking for the purposes of labor and sexual exploitation. The law establishes a sentence of 3 to 10 years imprisonment for all forms of trafficking.
There’re suggestions given upon the issue:
1.Governments need to strengthen local, regional and international cooperation in effective prevention and combating of such activities.
2.Governments should enhance the national medical condition,exert influence of international organizations like WHO and ICRC.
3.Countries where trafficking in person occurs should have a formal anti-trafficking policy or a national plan of action to complement its
anti-trafficking law.
Algeria is willing to develop the national economy and related jurisprudence for fear that the poorest might be compelled helplessly to sell organs by poverty. Algeria appeals for extensive awareness in public and multilateral cooperation to utilize power of international legislation to staunch the flow of illegal organ trafficking around the globe.
