Valentina Rueda

Greetings distinguished delegates,


It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the seventeenth edition of BAMUN. This year I have the honor of presiding over, along with my Co-President Maria Alejandra Fonseca, the Joint Crisis: Arab League Committee.


We expect all delegates to take matters into their own hands and come up with immediate and efficient solutions for the different situations they will be facing. We hope that the time given will be used wisely and that everyone will provide their best effort.


Now more than ever, in the difficult times the world is facing, we need to give hope to those who have lost it. We need to prove that there is still a chance for change to be made, change that will help our society have faith once again by reigniting the fire of hope that once shined so brightly.


If you have any questions or doubts, please don’t hesitate to contact me at rueda.c.valentina@marymountbq.edu.co, and I will reach back to you as soon as possible.


Sincerely,

Valentina Rueda
