Introduction- Sanaa Sodhi

 


Hello everyone! 


My name is Sanaa (she/her) and I will be one of the Vice-Chairs for CCPCJ for BMUN 72! I am a third-year Political Science student with a minor in Public Policy. I am passionate about human rights and social justice, so I am very excited for this year’s committee topics! This is my third year in BMUN and MUN overall. In addition to chairing BMUN, I have also chaired NHSMUN. 


Outside of BMUN, I am a caseworker and policy coordinator for the Student Advocate’s Office which is part of the student government on campus, a member of a dance team called Danceworx and I have a campus job as a scheduling assistant at Berkeley Event Services. 


I am so excited to get to know all of you and I hope that everyone has an amazing time at BMUN 72! Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or concerns :)

Procedure & Committee Flow!

  Hi Delegates! I wanted to check in with you to provide some more insight to how our committee is going to work at BMUN 72. CCPCJ will be using standard BMUN procedure. Our committee will begin by opening a running Speaker’s List (standard speaking time is 1 minute, 30 seconds) and those speeches will be followed by 2 30-second comments by other delegates.

Hey Delegates!  My name is Mahima Shyno (she/her) and I’m the head chair for CCPCJ this year! I am currently a sophomore studying Sociology and Media Studies (concentrated in law and policy.) Academically, I'm super interested in social issues and how societal structures influence and impact communities as well as the role that media can play in creating a better world.  Outside of BMUN, I’m involved in undergraduate research for the linguistics department and I’m a video producer for the Daily Californian (Berkeley’s student news publication!).  I enjoy listening to podcasts, watching movies, and exploring.

I even competed at BMUN a couple of times so it is super exciting to be on the other side of the conference this year! Since I am a seasoned MUN kid, I know how difficult and stressful ...
