Deputy President
​Karen Wang

Greetings, delegates! My name is Karen Wang, and I am a junior from Shanghai American School Puxi. This marks my 8th Model United Nations conference, my 2nd time at SUZMUN, and my first time chairing. I am honored to serve as your Deputy President and lead the discussion on "Addressing the Rights and Status of Women in Afghanistan," a topic of great global significance. Since the Taliban regained power in August 2021, there has been a deterioration of women's rights in Afghanistan. The Taliban has issued numerous decrees that restrict women's freedoms, including bans on secondary education, employment in NGOs, and freedom of movement without a male guardian. Addressing this crisis is crucial for both Afghan women’s immediate protection and the fight for human rights and gender equality globally. I look forward to guiding delegates and hearing diverse perspectives in an effort to center the voices of Afghan women themselves. Delegates should come prepared with thorough research and a willingness to engage in a fruitful debate. With that being said, I am excited to meet you all in April!

President
​Sparrow Yeh

Greetings! My name is Sparrow Yeh, a junior at Concordia International School Shanghai, and it is my great pleasure to be serving as the the president chair for SUZMUN XIII’s UNCSW committee on the topic of Measures to protect women in India against heightened risks of physical and sexual violence. Throughout my years as an MUNer, I have served as admin, delegate, chair, and organizer, yet for me, nothing truly compares to the thrill of delegacy amidst rigorous debate and intellectual discourse. I trust that this year’s delegates would exemplify such values, allowing SUZMUN XIII to be a conference to remember. I look forward to meeting you all and seeing what wonders our committee’s delegates have to offer. Cheers!

Deputy President
​Artemis Chan

My name is Artemis, and I am a freshman at the International School of Beijing. It is my esteemed honor to serve as the Deputy President of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women at SUZMUN XIII. Over 2 years at MUN, I have participated in 12 conferences, with SUZMUN XIII marking my 13th! Besides MUN, I enjoy listening to Beabadoobee/Lil peep/Lamp music. :) I'm incredibly excited to engage with you all for the upcoming conference on the three topics, mainly focusing on Topic 2: Addressing postpartum depression in Less Economically Developed Countries (LEDCs). Postpartum depression (PPD) is a mood disorder experienced by many pregnant or postpartum individuals in LEDCs, where mental health support is often limited, affecting both maternal and child health. It is essential to detect and treat this disorder as early as possible to avoid harmful consequences, with the rise of awareness, improved health care, and integrated mental health services. See you all in April, I hope to create an enjoyable and memorable experience with you all!! If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at [email protected]. :D
