Repeal: "Supporting and Valuing the Humanities"
Category: Repeal | Target: GA #495
Proposed by: Tinhampton | Coauthor: Imperium Anglorum | Onsite Topic
Note: Only votes from TNP WA nations and NPA personnel will be counted. If you do not meet these requirements, please add (non-WA) or something of that effect to your vote.General Assembly Resolution #495 “Supporting and Valuing the Humanities” (Category: Education and Creativity; Area of Effect: Educational) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The World Assembly,
Reminding member nations that the General Fund, which relies on “donations from member states”, is not a bottomless pit of money;
Appalled that GA 495 does not sufficiently ensure that the World Humanities Fund does not pay for wasteful programmes that are only tangentially related to its objectives or permit member nation subdivisions to request funding for local educational needs;
Troubled that GA 495 fails to require that Fund-bankrolled programmes could not be paid for adequately by recipients without WA money;
Dismayed that this failure creates incentives for member nations to pawn off costs to the World Assembly and then pocket the difference, encouraging reckless spending of other peoples’ money;
Incensed at section 5’s requirement that “the GAO... cease the allowance of funds to the transgressing nation or organization” “if incorrect use of funds is reported” without adequate due process;
Interpreting that provision to apply to all GAO disbursements, rather than just World Humanities Fund handouts, even if nations or organisations receive funding in separate programmes with different oversight for separate purposes, such as:
Extremely concerned that, by cutting off member nation ministries from resources voted to them in previous resolutions for the wrongdoings of unrelated ministries, GA 495 would then:
- preventing radioactive leakage,
- primary education,
- healthcare for people in poverty, and
- economic development;
Convinced that GA 80 “A Promotion of Basic Education”, which already requires schools in member nations to offer more humanities courses than the bare-minimum single course required in Article 2 of the target resolution, renders the target resolution unnecessary, hereby:
- weaken safety standards in uranium mines, increasing the risk of widespread nuclear disaster,
- worsen primary education in other topics, harming literacy and basic education as a whole,
- hamper the ability of health systems in developing nations to cope with infectious diseases, and
- destroy jobs in weak economies, plunging workers into poverty; and
Repeals GA 495 “Supporting and Valuing the Humanities”.
