A laptop and charger are necessary for a productive conference. Delegates may bring water, pens and notepaper, however these will also be provided by the HLMUN team. Money for lunch is also not needed, as your lunch will have been paid by your school in advance. Mobile phones may be brought with you, however we strongly encourage you to set them aside during debating sessions.

How do we get to the PD Campus? What are the arrival times?
Our Praz-Dagoud Campus is located in Saint-Légier-La-Chièsaz, and is easily accessible by car. The building's above-ground car park will be available to any schools attending.
Schools should please aim to arrive anywhere between 08:15 and 08:45 where they will be greeted by our Secretariat in the foyer of the main building. Please use the main entrance, next to the playground, as opposed to the one facing the sports pitch. The conference is expected to last until around 16:30.
Can delegates use AI?
Can delegates use AI?
AI use at the HLMUN 2026 conference is permitted, and delegates may use it to aid them in their debates. However, delegates should keep in mind that challenging themselves and being well-prepared for their debate are crucial for a productive conference as well as for personal growth. Therefore, any resolutions submitted will be AI-checked - how a delegate's AI use (or lack thereof) is interpreted remains at the chairs' discretion.
It's my first time at an MUN conference, any tips?
It's my first time at an MUN conference, any tips?
First-time conferences can be stressful, so proper rest the night before is essential. We also encourage all delegates to arrive with a positive attitude, and view this conference as a learning experience, rather than a challenge or test.
If you require help or guidance, please do not hesitate to ask your chairs - either in person, or in advance, using the contact details listed on the "Committees" page of this website. Other delegates can also provide helpful information, and knowledge-sharing is often a good method of socialising on the day.
Additionally, please find some other resources below which might help new delegates in preparing for their debate:
