MEFHIGHMUN 2025 Theme:
AI for Inclusive Growth: Navigating Opportunities, Equity, and Ethical Challenges in the Digital Era
The procedure of this conference is THIMUN.
Honorable Delegates, Esteemed Chairs, beloved advisors and Distinguished Guests,
I am thrilled to welcome you to the MEFHIGHMUN 2025 conference. This year’s theme, “AI for Inclusive Growth: Navigating Opportunities, Equity, and Ethical Challenges in the Digital Era,” is incredibly timely as we stand on the brink of extraordinary technological advancements that impact our lives daily.
Artificial Intelligence is not just changing industries; it’s reshaping how we communicate and understand work, governance, and fairness. As nations strive to harness AI’s power, we face both amazing opportunities and daunting challenges. AI holds the promise of improved healthcare, streamlined economies, and groundbreaking innovations. Yet, it also raises essential questions about ethics, fairness, and accessibility. So the questions are, how can we ensure the benefits of AI reach everyone? How do we maintain innovation while safeguarding privacy and human rights?
Well, this year our conference offers you the chance to dive deep into these issues through diplomacy, intense and constructive debate, and collaboration. Model UN is more than a simulation; it’s a gathering of young leaders from diverse backgrounds, united to exchange ideas and tackle global challenges. As delegates, your role is to navigate this complex digital landscape with a vision for a future where AI serves all of humanity, not just a select few. As we engage in discussions, let us remember that the choices we make today will reverberate into the future. We must strive for an ethical digital era that empowers individuals regardless of their nationality, race, or socioeconomic status. This is your opportunity to craft policies that not only address our current challenges but also lay the groundwork for a more just and equitable world.
On behalf of the Secretariat, I encourage you to approach this conference with bold ideas, respectful discourse, and innovative solutions. Let us work together to ensure that progress is driven not only by technology but also by our shared commitment to compassion and collaboration. I look forward to the dynamic discussions and creative solutions that will emerge from our time together. Together, let us navigate the complexities of AI, bearing solutions in mind and ensure that no one is left behind in this new digital age.
Yours sincerely,
Karen Su Çiftçi

As artificial intelligence continues to reshape our world, it creates countless opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and progress across societies, economies, and cultures.
