Chair: Asha Herald, asha.herald@gmail.com
Hello! I’m Asha Herald, and I’m a Junior at Lake Mills High School. I’ll be one of your chairs for UNEP (UN Environment Programme). I was originally drawn to Model UN as a freshman, since I wanted to join as many clubs and extracurriculars as I possibly could.. Since it interested me, I stuck with it! This will be my third year in Model UN, and my second year chairing a committee. Although I enjoyed participating as a delegate, I really liked seeing what happens behind the scenes, so I decided to come back again as a chair. I’m really excited for this conference, and I’m always available if you have any questions or anything you need clarified.

Hello delegates, my name is Andrew Kruck (He/Him). I am a Middleton High School alumni, UW-Madison History department graduate (class of 2024), and current UMN Law student. I've been participating in Model UN for nine years at this point, since I was a freshman in high school. I was the president of my high school's club (back in my day), and am now the Director for Present Day simulations for this year's CIMUN. I joined Model UN in high school to get experience in public speaking, and because I have always been deeply interested in politics and the world around us. I continue to volunteer with MADMUN because I love seeing the next generation of thinkers who are going to tackle our world's problems, and because I think Model UN is one of the most valuable educational opportunities out there. The United Nations Environment Programme is an incredibly interesting committee, dealing with some of the most pressing issues facing our modern world, and allowing delegates the opportunity to not only seek out solutions to those problems, but to understand the complicated webs of competing interests and obstacles that must be overcome in order to resolve them. I can't wait to see you all resolve these problems at this year's MADMUN. I'm sure you'll have brilliant ideas to contribute, and that we'll all have a great time.
