Dear Delegates,
My name is Grigory Tolstoy and I am the head of philanthropy and sponsorships as well as the co-chair of the United Nations Economic and Social Council. This is my second year at MUN, and I’ve had the experience of representing the delegation of the Republic of India in the Economic and Social Council last year in Prague. I believe that MUN is a very valuable and rich experience that allows us to gain insight into the real works of United Nations as well as allowing us to develop essential collaborative and communication skills that will benefit us in the worlds of education, business and politics.
As the head of philanthropy and sponsorships my aim is to use this conference to connect to the outside community, network and establish valuable relationships, and to have the opportunity to give back through our philanthropy project.
As a co-chair of ECOSOC my goal is to create an environment in which every delegate has the opportunity to learn, to thrive and to reach their potential as a speaker, collaborator and policy maker.
I am excited for my opportunity to hear debates on the Human Rights issue that is the theme of our MUN conference.
Grigory Tolstoy
