Hi! My name is Mariana Monteiro, and I’m currently in 11th grade at the Shanghai French School. I’m incredibly excited to be serving as the President Chair of UNICEF at WLMUN this year. I started doing MUN in 9th grade, and since then, it’s become something I’m really passionate about. This will be my third time chairing, and I’m especially looking forward to working with newer delegates and helping you all feel confident and comfortable in the committee.

 

My biggest piece of advice is don’t be afraid to participate! Everyone starts somewhere, and MUN is all about learning by doing. Speak up, even if you’re nervous; you’ll improve with every speech, and you’re definitely not alone in feeling that way. I can’t wait to see the creative solutions and passionate debates you’ll bring to the table!

 

If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me via email: marianamorgadomonteiro@gmail.com

 

See you all in November!
