Letter from the Secretaries-General
Hello and welcome to the third interscholastic DEMUN conference! Ever since joining our
school’s Model UN team, we have always aspired to host our own conference, and with the
success we saw last year, we are so excited to see what delegates will be able to accomplish this
year! We have three committee offerings: one General Assembly (Legal), one Specialized
Committee (White House Situation Room), and one Crisis (Squid Game), which will be run by our
incredible Secretariat, who have worked tirelessly to organize this two-day conference.
This conference is meant to simulate what it is like to be a diplomat, as each delegate will become
a global citizen through researching their nation or character’s positions and learning throughout
the committee. We seek to foster an environment where diplomacy and respectful discourse are
paramount. We look forward to every participant stepping outside their comfort zone because
Model United Nations is an activity where the development of creativity and confidence is crucial.
All delegates are encouraged to raise their placards to speak during every moderated caucus and
collaborate with students they have never met before. While Model United Nations is an
intellectual exercise, it is also an opportunity to build personal and professional skills.
If you have any questions prior to the start of the conference, please contact your chairs (if your
queries are regarding your specific committee) or contact the secretariat at demun@d-e.org. Once
again, we are so excited to be hosting this in-person conference and cannot wait to have you all
here!
Best,
