Hello delegates, I’m Dareen Shaban, I’m a senior at Saint Joseph Seminary and high school and I’m truly honored to be your ROSMUN 2026 ECOSOC chair. 

Four years ago, Dr. Elias Farah introduced MUN to our classroom as a place of leadership, debate, and diplomacy. Out of curiosity and passion, I joined, unaware of how much it would shape the person I am today. 

I once thought MUN was only about giving speeches, but I soon realized it’s about growth, friendships, and overcoming fears. MUN taught me confidence, resilience, and the drive to become my best self. I’m excited to be a part of your MUN journey and if you have any questions during the conference DO NOT HESITATE to ask, wish you all have a great ROSMUN experience.
