Dear Delegates,
I am truly excited to be the Assistant President in the Security Council during this year‘s BERMUN2 conference alongside Greta Zoll and Maraki Tadesse.
As our conference theme in 2025 is Fighting Inequality, recognizing everyone's individuality is a very important aspect. Not only religion, gender or ethnicity play a role, but factors like fair education and social protection are also essential.
The specific topic of the Security Council is fighting the inequality citizens are facing in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where a lacking education system is a long lasting problem. Resolving this problem requires help with poverty, local conflicts and language-barriers, but would definitely have an important effect on the developments in the DRC. This is especially true, as the following generation will be the key to solving civil conflicts, as well as helping Congo’s economic future.
More personally, I am a 16 year old 11th grader at the John F. Kennedy School in Berlin. I enjoy doing all kinds of sports in my free time, as well as hanging out with my friends on weekends. This will be my first time chairing a conference, making it even more exciting. Prior to this conference, I also attended BERMUN last year.
I am looking forward to meeting you and working together with you in February!
Felix Strigel
