United Nations Children's Fund (MS)
Expanding Access to Higher Education in Developing Nations
Welcome to the United Nations Children's Fund at SAASMUN 2026!
Director
Aife Sullivan
Aife Sullivan is a junior at Seattle Academy. She is so excited to be acting as the Director for the United Nations Children's Fund for the first year of SAASMUN. She started MUN as a bewildered sophomore, new to the school and to the world of Model UN. Sitting in her first conference, she was in awe of how cool the dais seemed. She fell in love with Model UN, from debating laws to writing resolutions. She’s attended all sorts of conferences and traveled to Chicago and California. When she isn’t participating in Model UN, you can find her stressing about choir, procrastinating schoolwork, and making plans with her friends.
Chair
Owen Siebers
Owen Z. Siebers is a junior at Seattle Academy and is beyond ecstatic to be serving as your Chair for the United Nations Children’s Fund at SAASMUN 2026! When he’s not cooking up position papers or firing off definitely-not-improvised speeches, you can find him indulging in programming, anti-procrastinating his homework, nerding out over public transit systems, or curled up in a good book. Owen started his MUN journey in his freshman year at PACMUN 2024, desperately trying to figure out what the heck he was supposed to do in committee. Since then, he’s participated in 9 conferences across a variety of committee types and won a Best Position Paper award.
Assistant Director
Eme Graunke
Eme Graunke is a junior at Seattle Academy, and is proud to be in her 3rd year doing MUN! Her first experience was jumping into the deep end by attending NAIMUN, the largest student-run MUN conference in the world. Since then, she’s had the privilege of attending 5 conferences in Berkeley, Chicago, and around the Seattle area, and has had the time of her life solving problems, meeting new people, and exploring global issues. When she’s not preparing for a conference or cramming for a test she forgot about, she enjoys theater, crafting, reading, and bouldering.
