Dear Delegates, Advisors, and Friends of WAMUNC, 

 

It is my distinct pleasure to welcome you to the 26th iteration of the Washington Area Model United Nations Conference (WAMUNC). Held by GWIAA and the International Affairs Society at the George Washington University, our team is excited to host delegations from around the world in the heart of D.C. for another successful in-person conference. 

 

It is evident that Model UN provides delegates with meaningful skills, empowering them to pursue paths that can alter our world for the better. WAMUNC not only exposes delegates to the value of debate, leadership, analytical, and public speaking skills, but it also instills the importance of collaboration, cultural awareness, and global responsibility in them. As this conference is hosted alongside one of the country’s premier collegiate Model UN programs, it is held on GW’s campus at the center of Washington. Delegates gain first-hand experiences in the field of international affairs while learning all that the city has to offer through WAMUNC programming. At WAMUNC, we pride ourselves in making memorable experiences and opportunities accessible to high school students throughout our four-day conference. 

 

As this is my 11th and final year involved with MUN as well as my fourth year on WAMUNC Secretariat, I am committed to leading an unparalleled experience for all those involved. WAMUNC’s Secretariat and staff are all passionate about running an exceptional conference as well. These staffers are future leaders in international affairs, bringing their knowledge and various professional experiences to this prestigious conference. With experiences relative to research, Congress, NGOs, the White House, and the State Department, our staffers are dedicated to empowering the next generation of world leaders. 

 

I am ecstatic for WAMUNC XXVI, and we look forward to meeting you all in the spring. 

 

Sincerely, 

Isha Gupta

WAMUNC XXVI Secretary General
