Head Chair
Joshua Smith
Hello Delegates!
My name is Joshua Smith, and I am honored to be serving as a deputy chair for this year’s TIANMUN Conference.
TIANMUN is the perfect place for delegates such as yourselves to express your ideas and solutions to the pressing issues being presented in the Security Council. I remember my first time at the TIANMUN conference, I was in awe at how everyone worked together to create such finely crafted speeches, amendments, and resolutions.
You will be deliberating and debating over topics related to regionally-centered peace efforts and crucial international relations in this committee, so I suggest that you all dive deep into the subjects shown on the Topics page for the Security Council; this will benefit you greatly. In addition to this, I will do my best to ensure that you will all have opportunities to present your unique views and opinions.
See you all soon!
Deputy Chair
Sol Park
Hello delegates!
My name is Yujian Zeng, you can call me Steven, your student officer for TIANMUN XIII. Outside MUN, you might find me dissecting /math/physics questions, analyzing models, or scribbling potential ways to solve a physics question in the margins of my notebook. My MUN journey started with trembling hands at the podium, but I soon discovered that every speech, even imperfect ones, can shape a room’s energy and atmosphere. My favorite MUN moment was when we laughed together after a midnight discussion while eating a “waimai buffet”, realizing diplomacy is about people, not just procedures. My advice is that I would ask you to be bold enough to speak up, listen deeply to others, and not fear challenges; they’re your best teachers. I’m excited to witness your creativity and courage as we debate and solve global crises together at TIANMUN XIII. Let’s make this conference one to remember!
