Policies

  • Between August 1st and December 31st, 2025 at 11:59PM EST, CONMUN offers a full refund on delegate and delegation fees within 30 days of purchase on the CONMUN website. For refunds, please email del.affairs.conmun@cg-aa.org to file a refund. Refunds may take up to thirty (30) days to process.

  • At CONMUN, the minimum size to be recognized as a small delegation for awards is (4) delegates. Delegations of (12) delegates and above will be considered a large delegation.

    Please note that CONMUN calculates awards by ratio, meaning the total points awarded to a delegation will be divided by the number of delegates to create a delegation score.

    Delegation awards will be granted to the two delegations in each size category who have received the highest and second highest delegation scores, respectively. Delegations of less than five delegates, as well as independent delegates, are welcome to register and will be considered for individual awards but not delegation awards.

  • CONMUN highly recommends that all delegates ensure they have valid passports and valid travel documents to enter Canada. For delegates requiring a visa invitation letter on behalf of the CONMUN secretariat, please note that no refunds will be processed following issuing of a visa invitation letter. In order to request a visa invitation letter, please email del.affairs.conmun@cg-aa.org with the following information:

    1. Your proof of registration with payment confirmation.

    2. Hotel Booking confirmation. Please note that in order to qualify for the reduced rate at the DoubleTree, all delegates must already have valid travel documents (ie Visitor’s visa).

    3. A scan of your passport.

    Upon reception of a visa invitation letter, ConMUN will no longer be issuing refunds.

    Adhoc Committees will have 3 gavels

    General Assembly (GA) Committees

    Delegates should follow the Rules of Procedure and propose motions that advance focused, productive debate. They must clearly articulate their country’s position, integrate policy stances into solutions, seek compromise, and vote consistently with their positions.Participation should be consistent across topics, with ideas communicated clearly and persuasively. Delegates are expected to collaborate, and engage constructively with all members.

    Specialized Agencies (SA)

    Delegates should contribute substantively to written clauses and understand the full resolution beyond their authored sections. Clauses should be clear, central, and well-integrated. Delegates should also foster collaborative, non-toxic, and diverse blocs, make strategic decisions on bloc decisions, and participate actively in author panels and Q&A sessions.

    Crisis Committees

    Delegates are expected to actively author and sponsor directives, proposing innovative, relevant, and actionable solutions. Clauses should be clear, detailed, and well-reasoned, with effective collaboration on merged directives. Delegates should engage consistently through crisis notes, develop a coherent crisis arc, respond thoughtfully to feedback, and submit persuasive, well-organized notes.

  • At CONMUN 2026, equity is a foundational principle guiding every committee, background guide, and delegate experience.

    We recognize that global politics is shaped by unequal historical, colonial, racial, gender-based, economic, and epistemic power structures.

    As such, our background guides aim to present international issues responsibly, avoiding reductive narratives, harmful generalizations, or framings that privilege one worldview over others.

    Delegates are encouraged to approach their research and debate with cultural humility, awareness of bias, and respect for the lived experiences of affected communities.

    We ask all participants to engage critically and collaborate thoughtfully, ensuring that the solutions they propose reflect not only diplomatic strategy, but also compassion, fairness, and human dignity.

    In this spirit, CONMUN maintains clear expectations regarding conduct. Discriminatory, demeaning, or exclusionary behavior is not tolerated, including but not limited to racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, religious intolerance, colonial apologia, or the trivialization of violence, oppression, or historical trauma.

    Delegates are expected to avoid inflammatory language, personal attacks, stereotyping, and jokes or remarks that undermine the safety and dignity of others, whether in committee sessions, informal discussions, or online forums.

    Equity at CONMUN is not merely symbolic; it is a shared responsibility. All participants are expected to contribute to an environment where respectful disagreement is possible, accountability is upheld, and all voices can participate meaningfully in debate.
