Secretary-General: Alice Elizabeth RichardsonAlice is a Law Masters student at The Australian National University. She previously completed a Bachelor of Laws at The University of Sydney and a Bachelor of Arts; attaining First Class Honours for her thesis. Alice has been a delegate, director and organiser of many Model UNs over the past six years. Model UNs she has participated in include AMUNC, AIMUN, SydMUN, SUSMUN, BrizMUN and WorldMUN. Notably, she was chosen by the UN to compete at the first ever Global Model United Nations; the UN’s own Model UN at The Palais des Nations in Geneva. Along with a talented team, Alice has managed the preparations for AMUNC 2011 in Canberra. She sincerely hopes that everyone has a wonderful time this week!
Deputy Secretary-General for Sponsorship and Events: Lauren WilsonLauren is currently in her final year of an Arts/Law degree at the Australian National University. Lauren’s first AMUNC was in 2008 where she was introduced to the dynamic and contentious debates that characterise model UN conferences. In both 2008 and 2009 Lauren pursued her interests in human rights, global security and peacekeeping efforts as a delegate to the Fourth General Assembly. As the only Secretariat member who is a true Canberra local, she hopes to use her intimate knowledge of our Nation's Capital to provide delegates with the best that Canberra has to offer. In particular, as the Director-General of AMUNC at the High Court of Australia, Lauren is honoured to have carriage of AMUNC at this pre-eminent venue.
Deputy Secretary-General for Legal and Finances: Bruce Wong
Bruce is a partner and co-owner of a Sydney law firm and a volunteer solicitor in Western Sydney. He brings to AMUNC a wealth of experience in Model UN Conferences dating back to 2001 when he first participated in AMUNC. Since then he has directed the World Health Organisation multiple times and the International Court of Justice. After winning the Lisa Dale Lifetime Achievement Award last year for his ongoing contribution to Model UN, Bruce recently lead the Australian Delegation to WorldMUN 2011 in Singapore and is looking forward to retiring from Model UN all together this year after being reluctantly dragged out of retirement prematurely by his friend and esteemed colleague Alice Richardson.
