Welcome to NHSMUNC

Dear Advisors and Delegates,

 

It is my distinct honor to invite you to the inaugural session of the Northwood High School Model United Nations Conference (NHSMUNC), held on Saturday, April 16th. 

 

In such unprecedented and unpredictable times, the Northwood High MUN program hopes to instill a genuine appreciation for knowledge, discourse, and collaboration in its participants. In orchestrating this conference, we have striven to stay true to these principles -- from limiting committee sizes to providing written feedback for all position papers, we hope to aid every delegate, regardless of their background or experience, in reaching their full potential.

 

The seeds of this conference were planted nearly three years ago, as the 2019-2020 NHSMUN secretariat looked forward to providing an exceptionally talented delegation with the full Model UN experience, both front-room and back-room. Although these plans were disrupted by the global pandemic, we have taken this opportunity to reflect on how to best meet the desires and needs of delegates. In particular, after shifting our entire program online for over a year, we have implemented several unique features to our committee proceedings to maximize engagement and productivity in our short committee sessions while still retaining traditional parliamentary procedure. 

 

NHSMUNC I will feature a diverse mixture of committees, ranging from a historical crisis on Operation Condor to a GA on the Russo-Ukrainian crisis. We hope that all delegates will find a topic and committee format they are truly passionate about and which they will enjoy researching and debating. Additional information regarding our conference programming can be found on this website; if you have any questions or comments, please reach out to us at northwoodmun@gmail.com. 

 

On behalf of the NHSMUNC I Secretariat and the NHS community, I sincerely thank you for your continued support of our meeting, program, and educational mission. Conference registration will be opened in mid- to late-February. I hope to see you at NHSMUNC I!

 

Sincerely, 

 

Ryan Liu

Secretary-General
