Welcome from our 2010 Secretary General:

Elizabeth Kayed - Secretary-General - SRMUN XXI

Welcome Faculty Advisors and Delegates,

It is a great honor to welcome you all to the 21st annual Southern Regional Model United Nations Conference. Over the past 20 years the fundamental goals of diplomacy and education have continued to shape the work of the SRMUN organization. It is our commitment to you, the delegates and faculty advisors of SRMUN that remain our constant focus through the preparation process.

2010 will prove to be a landmark year, one in which many initiatives devoted towards peace and security will be reviewed and rethought. Threats to international peace and security have taken center stage for United Nations Member States as they become increasingly and ever dauntingly more prolific. Regional tension, foreign disputes, and acts of terrorism have attempted to shape our global future. The work of the United Nations is more crucial and necessary than what we have seen in generations; diplomacy and compromise shining bright as the vaccine for this overwhelming diagnosis.

This year's conference theme is The Global Paradigm: Enhancing Peace through Security Initiatives. We are embarking on a variety of new and important steps towards the continued success of SRMUN, including the following set of committees that will be both academically challenging, as well as rigorous in providing all SRMUN delegates with the core aspect of MUN, diplomacy.
