Avika Chandra - Deputy Secretary-General
Dear Esteemed Delegates
“The world is changed by your example, not by your opinion.” — Paulo Coelho
It is a distinct honor to welcome you to TTBSMUN 2026.
We often enter the world of Model United Nations focusing on the technicalities—the rules of procedure, the polished speeches, and the pursuit of accolades. However, the true value of this experience lies in the moments that cannot be scripted: the realization that your voice carries weight, the challenge of defending a difficult position, and the humility required to truly listen to an opposing perspective.
As your Deputy Secretary-General, my vision for this conference is rooted in Pragmatic Inclusivity. Beyond the formal diplomatic simulations, I want to ensure that TTBSMUN 2026 serves as a platform where every delegate—from the first-timer to the seasoned veteran—feels empowered to contribute. Our theme, “Advancing a Cooperative World Order,” demands more than just rhetoric; it requires us to be architects of actual solutions. I challenge you to move beyond the surface of debate and strive for policy innovations that address the complexities of our real-world landscape.
I encourage you to embrace the discomfort of growth. Speak when your voice shakes, stand firm in your research, and remain open to being changed by the ideas of others. Some of the most significant outcomes of this conference won’t be found in the final resolutions, but in the connections you forge and the confidence you build within yourself.
The Secretariat has worked tirelessly to ensure that the administrative and operational framework of this conference allows your ideas to take center stage. We are here to support your journey as you navigate the intricacies of global diplomacy and work toward a more stable, cooperative future.
I look forward to witnessing the passion and the innovative spirit you will bring to the conference.
Warm regards,
Avika Chandra
Deputy Secretary-General
