GWCIA 31

Dear Delegates, Advisors and Staff,

It is with great honor that I welcome you to the 31st iteration of the Greater Washington Conference on International Affairs! My name is Sameeksha, and I will be serving as your Secretary General. For 31 long years, we at GWU have had the wonderful opportunity to host a premier middle school Model UN conference right here on campus, in the heart of DC.

Model UN has always meant a lot to me growing up, it introduced to me the whole world of foreign affairs, diplomacy and debate. MUN is a path towards not only critically engaging with the various global issues that demand dialogue, but a wide reaching community that I’ve been so grateful to be a part of. I’ve seen firsthand what MUN can do for building communication skills and friendships that’ll last a lifetime, and I hope GWCIA can accomplish that for you all.

Going into this conference, our mission at GWCIA 31 is to provide a safe, fun and engaging conference with a multitude of topics to debate on, from the ongoing political issues of our time to the fictional worlds we grew up watching. Pre-registration will open early summer, and our wonderful secretariat is committed to assisting you all with any questions you may have leading up to the conference.

I can’t wait to see you all again this December! 

Sincerely,
Sameeksha Arutla 

Secretary-General of GWCIA 30
