FEMM

Defence Speech

The delegate held an excellent speech on the horrors of female exploitations. She tells an emotional story about a girl being trafficked, even though this heartbreaking scene is from a movie these situations are occurring in real life. She provides the solution of spreading awareness.

LIBES’s attack speech

Responds to the first OC 3 about data identifying victims claiming this will not solve the problem.

Attack speech

The delegate believes the resolution doesn’t hit the mark. The third point is redundant since criminal profiling is already a thing. In addition victims don’t want to relive trauma. There was already an antitrafficking directive in 2011 which did the same thing but failed. So why do it again?

First debate round

CULT: The OC’s don’t represent action taking, but only implies waiting.

LIBE: Victims don’t want to relive traumatic parts of their lives. We should go to society and not only to the victims.

ENVI: Where and how can we find victims of human trafficking?

FEMM’s response

Victims want to prevent human trafficking from happening again so they will speak up. About the failed initiative in criminal profiling, we don’t have enough information.

Direct response:

A delegate from ENVII says it will cost a lot of money to spread awareness.

Direct Response FEMM:

Telling women how to avoid dangerous situations would solve the problem.

CULT: There is no specification about the difference between raising awareness and actual protection.

DIRECT RESPONSE LIBE:

The third clause actually calls for understanding, which is required to take action. 

Things are getting exciting and plaques are vigorously waved in the air. Who will it be?

ENVI I: Aren’t most victims to scared and ashamed.

ENVI II: In the overview FEMM said  if people are traumatized they most literally quiver in fear.

FEMM’s response:

If we create awareness, victims will step up and help each other. If it is told in the news it will not cost money in educational campaigns.

Last round:

LIBE: Barbara says why should women have to change their behaviors when human traffickers are in the wrong.

Direct Response FEMM: Awareness will cause people on the streets to recognize and stop human trafficking.

CULT, with a beautiful FOXY sign gets the (almost) last point: 

What are FEMM’s takes on gender equality?

LIBE: Doesn’t education about the dangers on the street make women afraid of every man they see on the street?

Direct Response ENVI I: It is a realistic problem, women are already afraid. Fear is not a reason to not raise awareness.

Summation speech

The delegate speaks very well about the importance of working together in order to stop human trafficking. We need to find the victims before we can find the traffickers.

Summation Speech 2

The delegate wants to emphasize that their solution is right. After observing the lack of awareness they feel the need to spread more awareness by utilizing more data. Furthermore, the EU needs to collaborate  with victims so people can confidently take about their problems.

The speech ends with a last cry: “VOTE FOR FEMM!”

….

With 20 votes against and 10 in favor the resolution has not passed.
