A MESSAGE FROM THE SECRETARIES GENERAL
Delegates, Parents, and Friends of H-MUN,
In the unprecedented circumstances we have lived through in the past year, the value of Model UN has never been more clear. The coronavirus pandemic has sent the world into financial crisis, healthcare disasters, and quarantine conditions. The dangers that our world faces demand solutions rooted in international collaboration and diplomacy. As we begin to see the light at the end of this dark tunnel, we are honored to invite you to the fourth annual session of Hinsdale Model United Nations.
This year at H-MUN, we will be discussing the international and domestic affairs of China, one of the most exciting centers of economic growth today. However, President Xi Jinping’s government has not only been praised for the explosion of China's tech sector, but also come under criticism for concerns of data privacy, as well as their handling of the situations in Hong Kong and Xinjiang province. The circumstances in China are some of the most dire and intriguing that our world faces today, and we are very excited to be discussing them with you all this summer.
Every year, H-MUN donates all of our profits to a UN agency or a non-profit organization that is working to solve the real-world issues that we discuss. This year, we will be donating our funds to Amnesty International, which has been working on refugee relief and lobbying campaigns for the Uyghur Muslims, who are being held in “re-education” camps in Xinjiang province.
Throughout the past few months, we have been working diligently alongside a phenomenal staff of high school students from across the Chicagoland area to bring you one of the first post-pandemic in-person Model UN conferences this July. We are looking forward to seeing what ideas you bring to committee. Thank you for your continued support of H-MUN!
Sincerely,

XINJIANG CRISIS: UYGHUR MUSLIMS
"The Chinese government has detained and imprisoned over one million Uyghur Muslims since 2017, and subjected others in the Xinjiang region to intense surveillance, religious restrictions, forced labor, and forced sterilizations."
"As of 2021, the United States has determined that China's actions constitute genocide and crimes against humanity."
