Letter from the Secretary General   

To all delegates, advisors and guests.

As Secretary General, it is my pleasure and honor to welcome you all to the fifth edition of BSBMUN. Since 2015, the American School of Brasilia has hosted this conference in November, inviting schools from Distrito Federal beyond, for a weekend of both learning and fun. This year, BSBMUN will be bigger and more diverse than it has ever been, reaching not only for international and foreign schools, but also from local Brazilian schools.

The leadership team is thrilled to host the various committees, from the world-shaking threats in the Security Council, the various regional troubles discussed by the regional bodies, to the ever changing nature of the Crisis committee, all of the people involved in the making of this BSBMUN will ensure there is something for everybody in our conference. I would like to encourage every delegate present to apply themselves to their fullest, be it their first or their last simulation, and acquire something new in these three days of debate.

Model United Nations is truly unparalleled in its objectives: to immerse thousands of learners every year in an environment of research, public speaking, and collaboration, all the while teaching about diplomacy and international relations. In this note, we could not wish for a better city to hold this conference than Brasilia, with its 125 foreign embassies and lively international population―most of which is frequently found at EAB's campus. I hope you can take part in this unique learning opportunity, and that you share in our mission of "developing global vision through student empowerment."

 I hope that you and your school will join us Thursday through Saturday on October 17th, 18th and 19th! With your participation, BSBMUN IV will truly be a remarkable conference!

Should any doubts or concerns arise regarding our event, please feel free and encouraged to contact me at eab202003983@eabdf.br or bsbmun@gmail.com. 

All the best, 
Victor Rasia Montenegro
Secretary General
