United Nations Commission on Trade And Development (UNCTAD)

Committee Profile

Coming soon!

Chair Letter

Hello Delegates,

My name is Enis Fang, and I will be the chair of the United Nations Conferences on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). I am from San Francisco and a second-year, undeclared social sciences major at UCLA as I finish narrowing down my interests in psychology, political science, and economics. As for some activities I do in my free time, I have recently been keeping up with the political and financial news, participating in the stock market, and enjoying watching elections. On occasion, I also like to play video games and watch animated shows.

My journey in MUN began around 4 years ago in my second year of high school where I was able to attend several conferences and chair a couple of committees at my high school’s conferences. Since coming to UCLA, I have had the honor of being a dias staff at last year’s BruinMUN and a crisis staff at LAMUN. During my time in MUN, I have been able to broaden my knowledge about the state of global affairs and the challenges we face today, and I hope this committee among others will do the same for you.

With the political and technological developments of the past few decades, the UNCTAD mission of supporting development and ensuring countries can benefit from globalized trade is becoming ever more important to ensuring a more equitable world for both developed and developing countries.

As I am sure that you have heard of the revolutionary developments in technology in the past few years, this committee will be focused on trying to address the multifaceted issues and navigating the many political interests that come with technology and energy. Ultimately, I am looking forward to seeing how you all approach these topics with your nation’s interest in mind and collaborate to ensure that the world develops sustainably and equitably.

Sincerely,

Enis Fang | Chair, UNCTAD | BruinMUN 33
