Message from The Founding President & Trustee
1st of all , I would like to congratulate Chittagong University Model United Nations Association for organizing CUMUN 2017 . When we started our journey , CUMUN was a vision , but this vision became a reality through the organizing of CUMUN 2015 . The legacy of that vision that we had imagined continued through CUMUN 2016 and finally now through a platform where the visionaries meet , CUMUN 2017 .
I would like to emphasize on the proper balance between the Delegate Fee and services provided in an MUN conference . The provided service in a Model United Nations Conference should be proportionate with the Delegate fee . Because I believe that MUN is not a money making machine . Cause , if there is an imbalance between the delegate fee and conference service , then MUNs will lose their overall acceptance and merely be a luxury for the aristocracy . The benefits of MUN should not be limited to a certain class .
I would also like to add that more focus should be rendered upon Learnings in the committee sessions of an MUN conference . The endeavors of the committee sessions should not be confined to the four days of committee sessions and meet and greet only . The activities of the committee sessions should have a longer lasting significance . The delegates should be made aware of the fact that each and every delegate has their own unique attributes and these qualities can be nurtured into the point of greatness . And I believe that would be the ultimate success of an adjudicator and contribute to the noble act of creating leadership .
I dream that the MUN community would forget the dispute among themselves and work together in a united manner . That is something to look forward in the future endeavors of the MUN community . I truly believe for an MUN conference where the delegates will be all in all , excluding biasness , with no underestimating , nor heartbreaking for awards .
Finally , I would like to thank all of our sponsors , our Honorable Faculties who have inspired and supported us from time to time and the hardworking administration of University of Chittagong , who have extended their hand of cooperation from day one .
