| 1 | To the General Assembly: |
| 2 | |
| 3 | Concerned that for every 10,000 people in Serbia, 30 people are homeless, |
| 4 | |
| 5 | Alarmed that Serbia’s in the top 50 countries of homelessness, |
| 6 | |
| 7 | Fully aware that unemployment rate is 9%, which surpasses the global average unemployment |
| 8 | rate by over 4%, |
| 9 | |
| 10 | Acknowledging that the UN has already established poverty and homelessness as a sustainability |
| 11 | goal in resolution 72/233, |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Mindful that the UN has a goal to achieve full and productive employment and decent work for all |
| 14 | men and woman, |
| 15 | |
| 16 | Reaffirming that the UN will ensure for all to adequate, safe, and affordable housing and basic |
| 17 | services, |
| 18 | |
| 19 | Observing that the UN plans to achieve full economic opportunity by the year 2030, |
| 20 | |
| 21 | Recognizing that Serbia has multiple programs such as The Comprehensive Support to Homeless, |
| 22 | The Regional Housing Programme, and The Borgen Project to help the homelessness but most of |
| 23 | them are short term, |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Taking into consideration that Finland and Japan have two of the most successful homelessness |
| 26 | programs in the world, |
| 27 | |
| 28 | The Delegates of Serbia Hereby Declare that: |
| 29 | |
| 30 | The UN provides $50 million to Serbian Department of Labor to enhance renovation of previous |
| 31 | refugee systems in which housing and necessary economic skills will be provided to those in need, |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Using $35 million from the provided $50 million, Serbia will refurbish refugee centers into housing |
| 34 | complexes that will provide longer term housing units and basic necessities to the homelessness |
| 35 | and refugee population, |
| 36 | |
| 37 | For the remaining $15 million dollars, Serbia will develop educational programs in the renovated |
| 38 | housing centers to provide economic and domestic guidance for those seeking opportunities for |
| 39 | their cultivation of basic level working skills that will further enable them to receive jobs and |
| 40 | eventually cater to themselves, |
| 41 | |
| 42 | Acknowledging that Serbia has a shortage in terms of construction businesses, the homeless |
| 43 | population can attain knowledge to perform basic tasks and there will be an influx of working class |
| 44 | individuals into government owned construction businesses, and while the homeless population will |
| 45 | not be suited for the demands of construction workers, no other blue collar jobs will educate the |
| 46 | individuals with knowledge to gain their own footing in life, |
| 47 | |
| 48 | Create incentives in form of tax reductions to companies that will aid participation and help |
| 49 | develop the skills of the homelessness by providing teachers, internships, and experience, |
| 50 | |
| 51 | Trust that the United Nations will enact this resolution by January 1, 2024. |
| 52 | |
| 53 | |
| 54 | a. Oversee construction, |
| 55 | b. Control wages, |
| 56 | c. Financially assist other countries wishing to participate; |
| 57 | |
| 58 | 6. Bringing attention to China’s global influence, with China taking the first leap to geothermal |
| 59 | energy, it is bound to become more globally used. |
