Dear all, good morning. Last Tuesday, February 4, after several months of joint work and amid an atmosphere of enthusiasm, collaboration, and total openness, at DBB™ we had the opportunity to lay the first stone with the launch of our first in-person CLUB MUN workshop at your school, which promises to be a long-term project with a wide reach in the northern city of Monterrey, N.L., in partnership with Skillbridge, English Learning Hub, whose innovative model provides a highly

Dear all, Happy New Year 2025. They say better late than never, but the start of 2025 at DBB® has been full of issues to address, actions and processes to identify and automate, and deadlines to set and meet. One of those deadlines is undoubtedly writing the blog, which, in addition to being one of my favorite activities, is a space where, every time I devote time to it, I end up with a peculiar feeling of relief, companionship, and perspective on the challenges and opportuni

The nostalgia with which we bid farewell to one year is offset by the excitement with which we begin the next. Rather than saying goodbye to what is leaving, we must hold on to what it left us with. For us at DBB, 2024 brought clarity, direction, and awareness. It allowed us to understand and define the essence of what we do and began to teach us how to do it better and what we must build around it so that it can reach more educational spaces and more people open to learning

Dear all, good morning. Growing up often comes with the natural challenge of facing the unknown, coupled with the (also natural) resistance to leaving one's comfort zone and the uncertainty of the direction things will take as one grows up, but fortunately, it is inevitable. Growing up also does us the favor of bringing us to a point where we can look back and gain perspective on how much has happened and had to happen, how all of that has brought us to where we are today, an

Dear all, good morning A week ago (November 12-15), we had the pleasure of attending the 7th edition of the Noordwijk International College Model United Nations (NICMUN VII 2024) in the beautiful and very hospitable city of Veracruz, Mexico. It was very heartening to see and feel both the school's high level of commitment to this key activity for the development of essential skills in young people young people, as well as that of the incredible community of students and paren

Dear all, good morning. Among the many topics to share, today we will discuss “Global Citizenship,” a relatively new term that is gaining relevance as we understand the unlimited potential it represents for anyone who can connect with the idea that their present and future are related, both in terms of developing essential skills and the ability to apply them in an increasingly broader environment in an increasingly interconnected world. Despite the challenges facing young pe

Dear all, good morning. Despite the busy weeks we have had, I owed it to myself to sit down and share a little bit about what we do with such enthusiasm and dedication, because this new school year 24-25 brings with it a period of strengthening our structure as an organization. One of the keys to this has been the educational partnerships we have been fortunate enough to build over the years, which are the result of a collaboration with a common mission and vision of providin

With the enthusiastic participation of nearly 50 delegates debating simultaneously between Mexico, the United States, Nigeria, and Portugal, the 3rd Edition of DBBMUN Online took place on Saturday, October 19. It was also our first international online conference, promoted among students from schools and institutions with which we have educational agreements. The event succeeded in linking and connecting young people of very diverse and different nationalities, ideas, culture

Dear all: Last September, a mixed delegation from DBB, together with high school students from Wexford and Prepa Anáhuac schools in Querétaro and Noordwijk International College in Veracruz, had the opportunity to travel to Lisbon, Portugal, to participate in Happy MUN, a two-way academic experience organized by DBB in collaboration with Dr. Jorge H. Dias, Universidade Atlántica de Lisboa, and Agrupación de Colegios Restelo. The dual objective allowed, on the one hand, the Me

Dear readers and members of the DBB Family. Today, October 24, 2023, the United Nations (UN) celebrates its 78th anniversary, thanks to the fact that on this day in 1945, it was created as an organization after the agreement between most of its founding members was ratified. A few years later, in 1971, the UN General Assembly passed a resolution to consider this date an OFFICIAL HOLIDAY, and since then, this day has been celebrated around the world with meetings, debates, and

Yesterday, September 25, 2023, marked eight years since world leaders gathered at the United Nations headquarters in New York to participate in the Sustainable Development Summit and agreed to adopt a set of global goals aimed at solving serious problems such as the eradication of hunger and poverty, the safety of the planet's inhabitants, the generation of prosperity, etc. To this end, they created what is known as the “Sustainable Development Agenda,” which consists of 17

Dear DBB Family: A few days ago, we woke up to a momentous surprise for the growth of DBB, confirming that the mission we have set ourselves as a team—to actively make a difference in our environment through high-quality, ethical, interesting, and experiential education—is being carried by a tailwind that is taking us further than we expected. On August 30, Delegates Beyond Borders was recognized as a Member School of the Global Schools Program ( https://www.globalschoolsprog

At the beginning of July, after 13 months on hold, we resumed our talks with CityMUN, our Nigerian friends who now represent us academically in the city of Lagos, the African capital of Nigeria. The alliance aims to create opportunities for a delegation of Nigerian students to participate in person as delegates in our upcoming SICMUN VI model, which will take place on February 10 and 11, 2024, in Georgetown, Texas. Our conversation focused on two main topics: the first was t

The facilities of Alberi Colegio Montessori in the city of Querétaro, Mexico, hosted last June, of the 1st Interschool MUN, in which the delegates, chairs, and organizing committee were conceived and organized by students between the ages of 12 and 15 from the school's Teen Community.

It is a pleasure to share news that brings us so much satisfaction and pride. At DBB, we are thrilled to share that Sofía C., part of the DBB family and a remarkable young university student thanks to her enormous intelligence, extraordinary talent, and the unconditional support of her beautiful family, was among the five finalists in her category in the second edition of the Women in Tech Awards LATAM, to be held in Lima, Peru, on August 29.

Ahead of the celebration of the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women on November 21, 2023, and thanks to the initiative of the Women's Services Department of the Municipality of Guanajuato, Gto., at DBB we are proud to share with our community an unprecedented official collaboration project, not only for us, but also at the regional and national levels. Last May, we began working with municipal authorities and a group of fifth-grade students from

Last April, we had the opportunity to visit Lisbon, the beautiful capital of Portugal. The reason that took us to Europe was to seek the academic partnerships necessary for the expansion of DBB across the old continent, in order to continue opening spaces and creating new MUN experiences, and the surprise we got exceeded our own expectations. Our trip had several destinations, and we must admit that Spain was the country that most attracted our attention due to the ease of t
