Hey delegates! My name is Carolina Barroso and I’ll be the Political Committee’s head chair this year. I am currently a junior at the American School of Brasília and this is my fifth year in MUN. I have chaired a few other conferences and I am extremely excited about what BSBMUN has to offer this year! A few of my hobbies include reading, playing golf, and binge-watching TV shows on Netflix. I hope that everyone has a great experience and I will see you all soon!
