LETTERS FROM THE CHAIRS
Welcome, delegates, to DAMUN XVII!
My name is Varsha Kumanan, and I am a senior at Uplift North Hills Preparatory. This is my second year chairing, and I am ecstatic to be a co-chair for this year’s General Assembly! Model UN is a place to explore and discuss the ever-changing nature of our world. I have learned so much from MUN, and I can’t wait to do it all over again with you! Remember, delegates: to speak about a topic, you have to know about it. With that said, research this year’s topics very well and be prepared to engage in meaningful discussion and impactful solutions.
Whether you are a first-time MUN-er or a seasoned veteran, I look forward to the thoughtful discussions and diplomacy! If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email me at varshakuman@gmail.com!
