Dear participants,

It is my utmost pleasure, as Secretary-General, to welcome you all sincerely to the fourth annual Çakabey Model United Nations 2026 conference.

MUNs bestow upon us many skills, from problem-solving to quick thinking that help us, as the younger generation, to acquire political awareness and expertise. These competencies will prove to be essential in our future.

Despite all of us having different aims for the coming years, there are some common skills that we all must acquire to excel in whatever field we choose. It is pivotal to be able to think on our feet in urgent situations, just as we do in crisis committees; and to make use of our diplomatic skills, as is required in General Assembly committees. These conferences play a clear role in helping us to develop these and other skills, preparing us for a rapidly changing future.

Ultimately, ÇAKAMUN’26, and the committees that we have set up, provide a blueprint for our future lives. Our theme “Beyond the Battlefield: Forging Peace and Diplomacy in a Fragmented World” covers most of the issues that we face nowadays, in an age when people often resort to conflict before abiding by international laws. As the Secretary-General of this conference, I wish you a fruitful and successful conference. I am sure that you will come up with excellent, forward-thinking resolutions and wish you all the best in achieving them.

Sincerely,

Gökçe Pamukcu

Secretary-General of Çakabey MUN 2026
