International Atomic Energy Agency
Single Delegate
Topic A: Preventing the Proliferation of Tactical Nuclear Weapons
Topic B: Safe Disposal of Nuclear Waste
Welcome to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) for ILMUNC XLI! In this specialized committee, delegates will engage in critical discussions on two pressing global issues: preventing the proliferation of tactical nuclear weapons and ensuring the safe disposal of nuclear waste. Delegates will work together to address the challenges posed by nuclear weapons development and the environmental and health risks associated with nuclear waste management. Through diplomatic dialogue and collaboration, participants will seek innovative and actionable solutions to promote global security and safeguard environmental health.
Dear Delegates,
I am excited to welcome you to the International Atomic Energy Agency Committee (IAEA) of ILMUNC! My name is Graci Davidson, and as the moderator I look forward to guiding you through engaging and impactful discussions on crucial global issues regarding nuclear energy and nuclear safety.
As a specialized agency, the IAEA committee is a crucial component of global efforts to seek and promote the peaceful use of nuclear energy. In more context, the committee attempts to limit nuclear use for military purposes, ensuring security and preventing the proliferation of nuclear weapons. The IAEA is vital in facilitating international cooperation in developing and using nuclear technology for peaceful and useful purposes such as energy production, medicine, agriculture, and industry. As we delve deep into complex topics, I look forward to hearing your ideas on how to best regulate and address such issues.
A little about me, I am a sophomore in the College of Arts and Sciences studying biology. I’m from North Carolina, where I attended Mooresville Senior High School. This will be the first conference that I have helped to plan with ILMUNC and I hope that you all have an enriching and valuable experience! In my free time, I enjoy traveling, shopping, and trying new things as much as possible!
Spencer, Orencia and I are all looking forward to working with you in the IAEA committee. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions regarding the committee.

Dear Delegates,
My name is Linda Gayle, and I’m looking forward to serving as your chair for the IAEA! I am a freshman from Maryland studying international relations, and I’m excited to explore global issues with you.
At Penn, I am part of the International Affairs Association and compete on our intercollegiate Model UN team. I also love languages and study Russian, French, and Spanish. I began Model UN my freshman year of high school, and my experiences have taught me so much: how to better research, develop solutions, speak effectively, and, most importantly, connect with people diplomatically. I hope to make the same experience possible for you, and I can’t wait to see all that you will accomplish. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me in advance of the conference!
With that said, are there any points or motions on the floor?
Linda Gayle
Moderator, International Atomic Energy Agency
