New to Model UN?

Model United Nations is a simulation of diplomacy. You take on a country or assigned role, discuss an issue with other delegates, and work together on possible solutions.

  1. Prepare your perspective

    Learn about your committee, its topic, and your assigned position.

  2. Join the discussion

    Share ideas, ask questions, and listen to other delegates.

  3. Work towards a solution

    Negotiate, find common ground, and develop proposals together.

Do I need previous MUN experience?

Our conference is designed to welcome beginner delegates as well as those with experience. If you are unsure which committee would suit you, contact our team before choosing.

What should I prepare?

Once you receive your assignment, research your country or role and the committee's topic. Check the Committees page for background guides as they become available, and follow any preparation instructions shared by the organizers.

What if I am nervous about speaking?

You do not need to arrive as a polished public speaker. Preparing a few key points and a short opening speech can help you feel more comfortable. Our aim is to provide a supportive setting in which to practise.

When will event details be available?

The 2026 conference will take place on November 9, 2026. Check the Conference page and our Instagram for updates, or email us with a question.
