Equilism member nation, The United Socialist States of Febreria, has a proposal currently seeking support. I will let Febreria's own words speak for the resolution:

------------------------
I submitted a proposal to the UN requesting that countries strive to limit the proliferation of small arms within their borders, as well as cease using and denounce the use of child soldiers. This is an important and relevant resolution to submit, and I request your approval of it.
Sincerely
The United Socialist States of Febreria
