Dear Delegates and Faculty Advisers,

It is my great honor and privilege to invite you to join us for the

68th Annual Session of Har vard National Model United Nations
in Boston, Massachusetts. At this point in time, the Secretariat is
preparing for a return to a fully in-person HNMUN conference,
to take place from Thursday, Februar y 10th to Sunday, Februar y
13th in 2022. Our conference prides itself in being more than an
average Model UN competition. For nearly seven decades,
HNMUN has ser ved as an annual forum for over 1500 college-
level delegates from across more than 40 countries to discuss the
world’s most pressing issues and devise solutions to difficult
challenges in international affairs. Participants at our conference
form lasting friendships and connections that transcend
boundaries, cross cultures, and extend far beyond the four days we
spend together at conference. Staffed ever y year by over 150
undergraduate students from Har vard College, HNMUN remains
the oldest, largest, and most prestigious collegiate conference of
its kind, and our team is excited to continue our legacy of
excellence as we embark on the journey to the 68th Session.

Despite the necessar y restrictions posed by the COVID-19

pandemic, we were still able to deliver a meaningful experience to
our delegates this past Februar y at HNMUN 2021 by
transitioning to an online format. We recognize however that a
virtual conference is not able to fully replicate the complete in-
person HNMUN experience that our delegates and staff alike have
come to know and cherish. As such, following extensive internal
deliberations, our HNMUN 2022 Secretariat has unanimously
committed to planning an entirely in-person conference for all
intents and purposes. The health and safety of all participants, as
well as full adherence to all state and university g uidelines, remain
our absolute top priorities. As such, HNMUN remains prepared to
shift back to a virtual format if necessitated to do so by
prohibitive g uidelines. Nevertheless,0 we are closely monitoring

vaccination rates and are cautiously optimistic that, following

proper health precautions, a traditional in-person conference will
be possible by spring of 2022. We remain conscious that an in-
person conference may necessarily raise concerns of broader
accessibility, an important issue which HNMUN hopes to
continue to address with our financial aid program.

Starting on May 15th, registration will open and delegations will

be allowed to begin applying for HNMUN 2022 through our
exclusive online registration platform, MUNBase, which is also
linked at the top of this website. Please note that in the event that
HNMUN is later forced to switch to a virtual format, part of
registration fees paid will be refunded in order to match adjusted
prices. Thank you ver y much for your interest in Har vard National
Model United Nations.

Sincerely,

Andrew Y.J. Kim
