buenos dias

Hi! My name is Chelsea and I am a junior at Cal studying Civil Engineering! I’m originally from Orange County (aka best place in the world) and I have been in MUN for 7 years now! At Cal, I am super busy (like seriously all the time) with BMUN, Engineers Without Borders (EWB), and my sorority. In my free time, I enjoy watching Grey’s Anatomy, taking long walks on the beach while contemplating the expansiveness of the universe, and drinking chai lattes (with soy milk and two shots of espresso, in case you want to bring me one ;) ). Also, I love all things to do with dogs (including petting dogs and doggo/pupper/woofer/floofer lingo) along with cats. I am so looking forward to conference, and I can’t wait to hear the excellent solutions that you come up with!!! Pls enjoy these various pics of me from all walks of life.

Hello!

Hey Everyone! My name is Calvin Price and I have the honor to serve as the head chair for BMUN’s Special Political and Decolonization committee this year—I’m really looking to working with you all this year! A little bit about myself: I’m a sophomore studying economics, computer science, and Chinese.   I’m originally from Los Angeles, but I’ve moved around quite a bit and have lived all over the world (the picture of me and the monkey is from Bali, Indonesia). I’ve been involved with Model UN since I was 10, attending conferences all over the world, running conferences, and training delegates. It has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life and I hope it affords a similar experience to you. Outside of Model UN, I’m also involved in social impact consulting, cryptocurrency development, and love to read and exercise. My email is cprice@bmun.org ; if you have any questions about Model UN, this committee, or really anything, do...

The mutual relationship of stability.

Hello! I hope you are having a wonderful time researching about the two topics! This week, we are going to discuss an article written by a visiting associate professor of UC Berkeley. But, before going into the article, some background knowledge on the recent Iranian protests is important. On January 2, 2018, demonstrators took the streets of Iran in what’s considered as the “largest public display of discontent since the 2009 Green Movement” (CNN), protesting the nation’s stagnating economy and the lack of social freedoms. And this brings up a good point about the nature of unrest and instability in the region: economic grievances. The professor writes that “ the nuclear deal [referring to the 2015 Iran Nuclear Deal] raised people’s hopes for an expedited and expanded economic recovery… [but] the country’s current economic difficulties, as well as widespread corruption,” (Monshipouri) have not met the rise in people’s expectations. Specifically, Hassan Rouhani’s economic austerit...

Update on the Case Study of Australia’s Indigenous Population

Hello! Hope you guys are working hard on the position papers! Can’t wait to read over some of them. Today, we are going to further look into the case study of the aboriginals population in Australia. The article listed above lays out beautifully the “social gap” between the indigenous and Australian population. And the results are striking. Let’s take a look at these statistics with the lense of health, poverty, and education in to consideration (*look at the topic synopsis if confused). Poverty: We can consider poverty rates first, and what do we see? Compared to the 5.8% unemployment rate of the Australian population, that of the indigenous population quadruples at 20.8%. Education: Students attending school 90% of the time for the Australian population is 79.3%, while for the indigenous population it is 49%. Additionally, compared to the Australian population where 80% of the students have finished year 12, only 61% of students of indigenous backgrounds have done the same....
