Greetings Delegates! My name is Melody Buchanan and I will be one of your chairs for PANAMUN XXXII in the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC). Some personal facts about me are that I’m currently a senior, I’m Panamanian, and I’ve lived here my whole life. Regarding my MUN background, my first conference was PANAMUN XXIX when I was still a freshman and my second conference was PANAMUN XXX. I was a delegate at both of these conferences so I know firsthand what it feels like to be in your spot. While it was a nerve-racking experience as it was my first two years in high school and PANAMUN, it was also enjoyable and intriguing. I learned a lot from my peers and was able to push myself outside of my comfort zone. PANAMUN XXXI was my first conference as a chair. Even in the worst of situations being a chair was such a lovely experience I just had to do it again. PANAMUN gave me a handful of mixed feelings. There were many moments when I was really stressed. However, I am so glad I did PANAMUN because all that stress blossomed into beautiful and hilarious memories I’ll never forget. PANAMUN is a great opportunity to grow and debate topics you’re interested in. Even if it gets hard, I challenge you to push through it. That being said, I look forward to meeting you all and I hope I’m able to make it enjoyable for you. Until then delegates!
