Welcome to YMUN LI! 

Dear delegates, advisors, parents, and future diplomats,

It is my pleasure and honor to invite you to the 51st iteration of Yale Model United Nations, taking place from January 23rd to January 26th, 2025, on Yale's historic campus in New Haven, Connecticut. I am delighted to serve as Secretary-General for a conference that, for 51 years, has been dedicated to values of education, excellence, and teamwork. For ten months, I am excited to work alongside an incredibly talented Secretariat of 37 Yale students to plan a conference that showcases the best that Yale has to offer.

Unlike many Model United Nations conferences, Yale is at the heart of the YMUN experience. With our "Yale Day" dedicated to experiencing life as a Yale student and our committees held in Yale classrooms, YMUN LI promises to be an unforgettable experience for delegates and advisors both in and out of committee. At YMUN, nearly 1800 high school students will discuss pressing global issues in the same classrooms that have inspired presidents, prime ministers, and policymakers from around the world.

Over the course of four days, YMUN LI aims to challenge delegates to engage and think critically. Through our many committees, most of which have no more than 30 delegates, students will research historical disputes and conflicts, investigate humanitarian crises and responses, and work towards collaboration to solve the most pressing of current international issues. Delegates will pass dozens of resolutions that address a wide range of topics, developing leadership, empathy, and teamwork skills that are crucial in shaping our next generation of world leaders.

We look forward to welcoming you to our conference in January 2025. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to secgen@ymun.org.

On behalf of our team, once again, welcome to YMUN LI!

Sincerely,
Peilin Lu
Secretary-General

The constant self-evaluation and integration of feedback make YMUN more innovative than other conferences. [...] The recent changes all serve to support YMUN’s fundamental mission as a conference: education.
