Welcome to the 2011 Conference!

Dear Delegates and Faculty Advisers,

It is my great pleasure to invite you to the 58th session of Harvard Model United Nations.  HMUN 2011 will be held from Thursday, January 27 to Sunday, January 30, 2011 at the Sheraton Boston.  After a hugely successful 2010 conference, I could not be more excited to embark on this year of preparation for another simulation of distinguished United Nations bodies, diverse international organizations, and dynamic non-state actors.  Our staff of dedicated Harvard students is already beginning conference preparations, and we look forward to welcoming you to Boston next January!

We at HMUN are deeply committed to sharing the experience of learning about and practicing international relations.  HMUN 2011 will be accessible to as many students from all over the world as possible.  To this end, we will offer more financial aid to delegations in need than ever before.  We are working hard to increase the use of technology and multimedia in all of our committees in order to increase both the realism and excitement of our simulation.  Finally, we look forward to proudly showcasing our beautiful campus with activities and tours over the course of the weekend.

Registration materials will be available here beginning in mid-April.  If you have any questions before then, please do not hesitate to contact us.  Whether this will be your first year at our conference or your school has loyally attended for many years, welcome to HMUN 2011!

Sincerely,

Alexander N. Barrett
Secretary-General
