2026 Secondary School Model UNESCO International Conference on Ethics of Neurotechnology
The 2026 Secondary School Model UNESCO International Conference will be hosted on the theme of “Ethics of Neurotechnology”, in response to adoption of the first global normative framework on the ethics of neurotechnology issued by UNESCO at the 43rd UNESCO General Conference, in November 2025.
Conference Background: A Topic of Global Significance
Neurotechnology is advancing at an unprecedented pace, integrating deeply with AI systems. These technologies—from brain-computer interfaces to neuro-monitoring tools—carry both promise and peril. UNESCO’s International Bioethics Committee (IBC) and the Draft Recommendation on the Ethics of Neurotechnology (2024) emphasize the need for ethical frameworks to protect brain data, cognitive liberty, and human identity.
At the 43rd UNESCO General Conference in November 2025. UNESCO issued the first global normative framework on the ethics of neurotechnology on November 5; it is set to enter into force on November 12. This recommended standard is designed to maintain a balance between innovation and human rights to protect the human brain and brain-related data from misuse.
Conference Background: The youth conference conducted in December 2025.
On December 13, 2025, the World Federation of Clubs and Associations for UNESCO (WFUCA) and the Hong Kong Association for UNESCO (UHKA) successfully hosted the 4th International UNESCO Model (MUNESCO) Conference in Hong Kong on the theme “Ethics of Neurotechnology, under the patronage of UNESCO and with the title sponsorship of Bank of China (Hong Kong). Youths aged 18-25 from 25 different countries participated in the conference, creating a platform for a dynamic simulation and critical dialogue to discuss innovative proposals and solutions for this topic.
The 2026 Secondary School 模拟联合国教科文组织国际大会 on Ethics of Neurotechnology hopes to explore new perspectives from the viewpoint of secondary school students, which we hope to combine with insights from the youth conference and construct a more comprehensive recommendation for the global and regional bodies.
