Hi! My name is Arwen and I'm a second year Liberal Arts student. My experience at DCMUN so far has been utterly invaluable: it has not only made me a stronger public speaker and a better researcher, but it's also introduced me to some of the most brilliant and passionate people I've ever had the pleasure to meet. That's why I am so excited to be a part of this year's executive team! As President, I'll strive to carry on DCMUN's legacy of diplomacy at conferences and make Model UN more accessible and inclusive.

Stay tuned for details about our upcoming information session! We hope to see you there!

Hey everyone! I’m Eddy and I’m in my second year in International Business Studies and I will be the Vice-President for training for the upcoming year. I was relatively new to Model United Nations last year and my experience with DCMUN was incredible. I was able to learn many new skills, meet amazing people from all over the world, get to know our great DCMUN delegates and make everlasting memories. I am beyond excited to get started for an amazing year!

Are you interested in joining the DCMUN team? Stay tuned for details about our upcoming training session!

Hi, I’m Zach! I’m a second year Health Science student and your Vice President of Administration.
As someone who only started doing Model UN in CÉGEP, I truly loved being part of such a dynamic group of people with different views and perspectives. I’m excited to be back this year to help us all adjust to a hopefully all in person conference season!
