EUROPEAN UNION COMMISSION
Daniela Martinez
President
My name is Daniela Martinez and I am excited to be the President of the European Union this year. I am currently 17 years old and a senior here at International School of Cancun. In my free time I like to listen to music, go out with my friends and play games. At this moment I'm not sure of what I want to study. Even so, I am looking forward to studying abroad.
My first experience as a delegate was in 9th grade. At first I was very nervous, since Model UN was new to me. After some time, I really enjoyed the idea of participating in more MUN conferences. I have participated in all 3 past conferences of CancunMUN. This year, I am very honored to have the opportunity to be the President of the European Union for my last CancunMUN conference. Last year I was introduced to a new committee, the European Union. I was interested in the committee, since it follows a different procedure from the standard Model UN. The purpose of this committee is to encourage peace, manage economic crises, social conflicts, and political affairs.
​
For this conference, I expect commissioners to be prepared, responsible, respectful and maintain a professional environment during the sessions. At the same time, I do expect commissioners to be excited and have fun during CancunMUN. I look forward to working with all of you and having a great MUN experience! I encourage everyone to check the background guide, but remember this is a guide. It is important for all commissioners to do their own research to be well prepared and informed about the topics.
​
If you have any doubt or concern feel free to contact me via my email martinez.d@ciac.edu.mx. I look forward to meeting all of you, good luck!
Mauro Zurita
Vice-President
Hello commissioners!
My name is Mauro Zurita, and this year I have the honor of being vice president for the European Commission in this year's MUN. I am 15 years old and I’m currently in 10th grade. In my free time, I mostly like to play football, watch movies or play video games. Especially sci-fi games. Once I graduate I’d like to study avionics and eventually become an airplane pilot.
This will be my second MUN conference. My past experience in MUN has been in CancunMUN, where I participated as a senator in the United States Senate. I have a deep appreciation towards international politics and the European Commission, making me proud and excited to be your vice president this year. As for the committee, the purpose of the European Commission is to promote the well being and security of its citizens while also addressing all of the problems and crises that the citizens of each state face. Weather national meaning country wise, internal meaning members of the EU or international, beyond the European Union.
​
As for you, we expect every commissioner to be respectful to other people and to follow all of the procedures forming part in this commission. I look forward to seeing all of you in person. If you have any doubts or questions feel free to contact me at mauro.zurita@ciac.edu.mx.
Make sure to look at the guide, just keep in mind it does not contain everything and you will have to do your own research. Make sure to study well, investigate and overall have a good experience in MUN. I look forward to seeing you. Good luck.
