Tara O'Connor
Hi! My name is Tara O’Connor and I am really excited to announce that I will be Urios’ 42nd Activities Commissioner. As the Activities Commissioner I want to make sure that all students feel at home in the Netherlands by planning activities that will encourage members to meet new people and will help them to get to know the city better. Next to the social activities, there will also be a chance to get a taste of the international and European law community from a more practical perspective. Our formal activities will be a perfect opportunity to meet professionals in the field and visit several legal institutions.

Hi! My name is Casper van Wetten and I’m 20 years old. I am very interested in world politics, to be specific to the United Nations. Therefore it is an honor to be the MUN Commissioner this year.
One of my responsibilities this year is organizing the annual Model United Nations of Urios, also known as URUMUN. Model United Nations is an educational simulation where participants (also known as delegates) will represent a UN country and tackle global problems with one another. I will also organize a UN trip, where we go to other countries to participate in other Model United Nations.

I got to meet people from all over the world and with many different backgrounds. Therefore, I am excited to meet more from all different backgrounds and learn from their political point of view.
