Welcome Letter

Dear delegates, esteemed faculty advisors, and fellow members of the MUN community,

It is with great pleasure that we extend our invitation to you for the ninth annual OxfordMUN, set to take place from November 22nd to November 24th at the esteemed University of Oxford’s Examination Schools.

This year, our conference endeavours to cast a spotlight on innovation and crises, shedding light on underexplored and underrepresented issues within the global political sphere. We eagerly anticipate delving into these new and exciting topics alongside you.

OxfordMUN will feature a diverse array of 13 committees, including four General Assemblies, three crisis committees for those seeking a dynamic and fast-paced challenge, and six specialised committees. We are proud to offer committees suitable for delegates of all levels of MUN experience, while also expanding our range of intermediate and advanced committees.

Throughout the conference weekend, delegates will have the opportunity to enhance their critical thinking, public speaking, and negotiation skills under the guidance and support of our dedicated staff. Our aim is to foster a nurturing and empowering environment that enables all delegates to thrive and excel in their learning journey.

Our overarching goal for this year’s conference is to inspire and engage delegates in meaningfulnegotiations, refine their diplomacy skills, and instil the values upheld by the United Nations, not only during the conference weekend but also in their ongoing endeavours beyond the event.

At Oxford Global, we are committed to embodying the global mission of the United Nations, fostering new friendships and networks that transcend geographical boundaries, and promoting a culture of respect and humility in our collective efforts to address global challenges.

Following the resounding success of our 2023 Home Conference, which welcomed 985 delegates from 26 countries, we are dedicated to hosting another exceptional event for our delegates and faculty advisors. In addition to our committee sessions, the conference weekend will feature a delegate social at the renowned Natural History Museum in Oxford, optional committee sessions chaired by the Secretariat for those eager to delve deeper into debate, and opportunities to engage with current Oxford undergraduate students.

For further details regarding the conference venues, committees, and additional information about Oxford, please visit our website. Should you have any inquiries or require assistance in preparation, please do not hesitate to contact us at info@oxfordglobal.org.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to our OxfordGlobal Home Conference this November, and we extend our warmest regards to you until then.

Yours faithfully,

Jo and Ben

On behalf of the Secretariat of OxfordMUN 2024
