Letter from the Secretariat

Dear delegates, chairs, and advisors

It is an honor to introduce the eighth edition of Brasilia Model United Nations. The secretariat is beyond excited to host this conference in a physical setting. The conference is scheduled to happen between the 17th and 19th of November in the American School of Brasília. The leadership team has been working hard to create an engaging return to the in-person format. BSBMUN is unique in its inclusion of local schools, fostering diversity of thought and introducing more people to the world of MUN. The secretariat hopes to promote awareness, cooperation, and critical thinking. Model United Nations is a unique experience that helps us understand our world by compelling delegates, chairs, and advisors to address the threats that undermine the fabric of our shared society and address them creatively.

Since 2015, BSBMUN has been a fantastic opportunity for students from international and Brazilian schools to learn about international relations, practice diplomacy actively, and discuss pressing global issues. Located in a multicultural campus within Brazil's diplomatic center, BSBMUN's location affords a one-of-a-kind location for its delegates. 

This year's conference will feature a wide array of committees. We will be pleased to present traditional UN committees and challenging special committees. Our committees will allow delegates to develop a diverse skill set — from critical thinking, research, and writing, to effective communication — necessary to contribute to the global community. BSBMUN is an opportunity to foster individual and collective growth in a challenging environment. 

If you have any inquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us at bsbmun@gmail.com. We hope to see you in October!

All the best,
The BSBMUN VIII Secretariat
