ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL COUNCIL
Fernanda Yañez
Chair
Dear Delegates,
My name is Fernanda Yañez, and I am thrilled to be your Chair in the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in this year's conference. I am 16 years old, and I am currently a junior at the International American School of Cancun. In my spare time, I enjoy playing tennis, watching movies and series, reading, and hanging out with my friends. Once I graduate, I would like to study film or design in Madrid.
This would be my third experience in a MUN conference. I had experience as both a page and a delegate in CancunMUN. I am enthusiastic to be part of this conference. This committee interests me because it covers topics like education, economic labor, gender equality, trade, poverty, and sustainable cities, and I believe these are crucial topics that should be discussed.
As I mentioned before, I am excited about having the opportunity to be your Chair, and I do not expect less than respectful and enthusiastic delegates to create a professional, diplomatic, and positive environment in the committee. I look forward to getting to know you all and working with all of you. Remember that your background guide is not your only source of information; be prepared. Please do not hesitate to contact me at fernanda.yanez@ciac.edu.mx if you have any doubts. Good luck, delegates!
