From The Secretary General
Honourable Future Delegates, Esteemed Colleagues, Dear Friends
As this year's Secretary General, it is my honour and pleasure to welcome you to the Fourth Edition of BITSMUN, the Model United Nations hosted by BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus and organised by the BITSMUN Society. I will have the privilege to be your humble host this October 2015 in the wonderful city of Hyderabad, the pearl of the south. This year's Conference is full of surprises and its contents will allow you, as a representative of a foreign government, to explore new themes and issues, face new challenges and meet new people from many and varied regions. If you are an experienced MUNer or if it's the first time you enter an intellectually thrilling simulation of this sort, BITSMUN can provide you with the right mix of challenge and guidance. You can call this conference the perfect starting point for what can become your very own MUN adventure.
In the past editions, delegates more than 150 in number from varied regions across India and abroad have participated, and we aim to improve that figure, thanks to our new partnerships and networks with other MUNs as well as other associations, so that you may experience a lively multicultural environment at work to address worldwide issues. In conclusion, we are waiting for you, young leaders of the future, to come and find new, intriguing, innovative and creative solutions to old problems. This year's Conference would help practice skills and acquire knowledge that without fail would help you in the career you pursue. Working for an NGO, a government, a think-tank, or any international organization, what you experience during this MUN conference will aid you in a variety of situations. However, I hope BITSMUN 2015 can be an occasion to reflect on the role of leadership and how this can influence a community. So, if you think you can shed some light on the issues and you feel excited to debate intensively during the conference, enjoy fruitful conversations, experience the multiplicity of views on current international disputes, BITSMUN is the perfect conference to attend this year.
Put on your diplomatic attire, choose a country that you would like to represent and prepare for the ever-inspiring and rewarding talks. I, and the OC of BITSMUN'15, once again welcome you to these three days of quality debate, stimulating challenges, new experiences and undoubtedly, loads of fun.
Ayan Bharadwaj,
Secretary General,
BITSMUN '15
