The AIIB is a global financial institution dedicated to supporting sustainable development and infrastructure across regions. With 111 member states and $100 billion in capital, it finances projects in energy, transport, communications, and public services, strengthening connectivity and economic growth.

Originally proposed by China, the AIIB has since evolved into a major multilateral institution promoting cooperation, transparency, and global development.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Part of AIIB\u2019s founding mission was counterbalancing the limited influence of Asian nations in \u2018west-dominated\u2019 organisations like the World Bank and IMF. Though it has succeeded in channeling funding to the continent, not every nation has seen its fair share. The funding pool has been dominated by larger, more economically advanced member countries with an insatiable demand for infrastructure development. These nations also have the largest voting power. Is the AIIB at risk of recreating the same structures it sought to dismantle? As the differing rates of adoption for climate transition and sustainable infrastructure becomes more apparent, how can AIIB position itself to optimise outcomes for all nations it serves in a rapidly changing global landscape.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Hello everyone! My name is Chibudom, I am a third year degree apprentice based in the UK and studying Applied Finance. My first model UN conference was in 2024 and I have been hooked ever since! MUN has encouraged me to break out of my shell, introduced me to really great communities, and provided so many hilarious moments and enriching debates. Super excited to continue this journey with my first ever international conference at MaltMUN 2026.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Hey, everyone my name is Leonard. I am 21 years old and originally from Bonn, Germany, and currently in my fourth semester at the University of St.Gallen, studying International Affairs. I started my MUN journey last year and have since had the opportunity to attend 5 conferences. Outside of University, I love playing the piano and running. As this will be my first time in Malta and only my second time chairing,<\/span><\/p>

I am especially looking forward to this conference and meeting all of you for an amazing experience!<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
