Our Mission during COVID-19
Despite the limitations due to COVID-19, H-MUN believes it's critical now more than ever to adhere to our mission: "Providing support to the humanitarian crises of today, while engaging students in world politics..." The world needs bright, creative thinkers and leaders at this time. We hope you'll join us in our mission to educate and provide and together we can "Flatten The Curve."
Our Decision to Go Virtual
H-MUN staff discussed, extensively, the different courses of actions that we could take. While Illinois Health guidelines may be relaxed in the summer, we did not want to take unnecessary risks and gather in a large setting. A virtual conference still offers us the ability to educate and provide while operating at a safe distance.
