Greetings Delegates and Faculty Advisors,

​

It is therefore with utmost humility and excitement that I welcome you to the 13th edition of Sanskriti Model United Nations. My name is Vandan Parakh, and it is indeed a great privilege for me to serve as the Director-General of Outreach for this year's conference. Sanskriti Model United Nations has always been known as a platform for exchange, collaboration, and diplomacy for the bright young minds of the world to come together.

​

It was some years ago that I embarked on this particular MUN journey, and for me, it was nothing less than transformational. In the ensuing years, I felt the power of dialogue, the ethos of empathy, and the spirit of perseverance. I am hoping that these same lessons shall stay with each of you as you handle the challenging complexities that your committees will offer, speak towards consensus, and devise resolutions that will enable the world to pivot towards compromise.

​

At SMUN 2025, we shall spare no effort in bringing an experience that would be enriching, motivating, and simply memorable for one and all. Regardless if you are a veteran MUN delegate or you are participating in it for the very first time, understand that it is your contribution that makes this conference great.

​

I invite you to cross borders of your comfort zones, imbibe the very spirit of diplomacy, and give yourself to this journey of learning and leadership wholeheartedly. Together, let us uphold the long-standing legacy of SMUN, united by knowledge, cooperation, and progress through the globe.

Greetings delegates!

​

I’m Amairah Anand and I am pleased to be serving as your Director of Outreach for this year's Sanskriti Model United Nations. As as delegate, you are encouraged to branch out into unfamiliar territory and consequently develop a multifaceted personality.
Whether it is lobbying or paperwork, we all can learn something from our experiences. Since the beginning of my MUN journey, MUNs have been a platform through which I have interacted with delegates from all over the country and have had the opportunity to understand their perspectives and views- I have learnt more from these interactions than I have from books.

 

Sanskriti Model United Nations is more than a mere simulation of the United Nations; it encompasses every second of meticulous work that occurs behind the scenes. It's about the directors crafting committees, the teachers providing guidance, and, most importantly, it's about you, the delegates. Every edition builds upon benchmarks set by the previous members of the secretariat, and you, delegates, year after year, contribute not only to the agendas but also to our shared vision. 

​

This year, as the Director of Outreach for a conference as prestigious as Sanskriti Model United Nations, I hope that we as the members of the Upper Secretariat, are able to provide you with the enriching experience that Sanskriti Model United Nations has been known for.

​

As I conclude this, I must remind you of your responsibility as a delegate, to make yourself, your ideologies and your methodologies count. What draws me the most to MUNs is how we all start the same. The same podium, the same 90 seconds, the same excruciatingly lengthy background guide, and yet somehow we all reach different conclusions and within this peculiar happenstance, that is exactly what is needed of us as delegates, to be there as ‘us’ with all honesty and hard work. 

Best of luck delegates!

Warm Regards,
Amairah Anand

Director-General of Outreach
