Chair Letter

Hi Delegates!

My name is Sofia Bruno (she/her), and I’m so excited to be serving as your chair for the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (CCPCJ) at BruinMUN this year! I’m on the pre-law track and am currently majoring in Psychology, with plans to pursue a minor in Informational Media Studies at UCLA. Outside of academics, you can usually find me crocheting, playing random violin pieces, thrifting, or scouting out the best coffee shops within a bus-ride radius!

Before UCLA, I was deeply involved in MUN throughout high school. I joined as a freshman and eventually served as my club’s President during senior year. In addition, I served on the Secretariat of our home conference SFMUN for three years. MUN still continues to shape my interest in international cooperation and policy in our ever changing political landscape, so I’m excited to be guiding this debate from the other side of the dais!

This year’s CCPCJ topics focus on two major challenges: the global trade in counterfeit pharmaceuticals and the use of facial recognition technology in policing. Both raise complicated questions about how we apply legal frameworks to fast-changing issues. I’m especially interested in how delegates will approach the balance between innovation and accountability in law enforcement, and how international cooperation can help shape more effective and ethical policies. I’m also looking forward to hearing your thoughts on global equity, especially when it comes to access to safe medicine and how surveillance tools are used in different political systems.

Whether you’re new to MUN or have years of experience, I’m looking forward to hearing your ideas and seeing the debate unfold. If you have any questions before or during the conference, don’t hesitate to reach out. I'm here to help!

See you in November,

Sofia Bruno | Chair, CCPCJ | BruinMUN 2025
