Dear MUN Director and Advisor,

 

Along with the DISDHMUN Board of Directors, I warmly invite you and your students to our 4th annual DISDHMUN conference held on Friday, February 13th, 2026. During the conference, delegates from ages 14 to 19 will discuss diplomatic solutions to this year’s theme: Food Justice in Times of Crisis – Rethinking Global Responsibility.

 

Our mission is to ignite a passion for politics and diplomacy by providing a dynamic platform where students can connect, challenge ideas, and sharpen their English and public speaking skills. DISDHMUN can inspire students to make a meaningful impact by exposing them to different perspectives and teaching them how to communicate effectively. To achieve this, the Board of Directors is committed to making the conference inclusive, beginner-friendly, and let’s not forget, fun.

 

The selected theme, Food Justice in Times of Crisis – Rethinking Global Responsibility, is grounded in the 2nd Sustainable Development Goal of ending hunger. It was chosen in response to the emerging threats to food security posed by geopolitical conflicts and global warming. At the core of this theme lies establishing resilient food systems, which involves preventing malnutrition, improving agricultural practices, and refining the economic system of the global food market. During the conference, delegates will develop resolutions to address these pressing issues.

 

Exploring this theme will allow delegates to learn about an important societal issue that has to be approached by considering many different perspectives. In our globalized world, the food market is highly interconnected, and threats to food security, such as climate change, must be addressed collaboratively. Therefore, the diplomatic methods simulated at DISDHMUN are necessary for achieving the 2nd Sustainable Development Goal in the real world.

 

The one-day conference will start with an opening ceremony including talks by guest speakers on the topic of food justice. Following that, delegates will start debating in their respective committees and work on negotiating constructive resolutions. As always, DISDHMUN will conclude with a brief closing ceremony reflecting on the highlights of the conference.

 

The DISDHMUN Board of Directors has carefully selected committees and issues related to the theme of this year’s conference. For the first time, the conference will feature the Environment Committee (EVC) to explore the connections between environmental protection and food justice. We are also excited to introduce the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in this year’s conference, where delegates will discuss economic concepts for improving food security. In addition, the theme will be discussed in the Security Council (SC), Human Rights Council (HRC), and UN Development Programme (UNDP). This selection of committees ensures that the topic of food security is approached from different perspectives while keeping the conference focused, making DISDHMUN a perfect platform for delegates to explore practical solutions to a problem affecting a large part of the world’s population.

 

The deadline for submission of school registration, single delegates, and student officers’ forms is Monday, November 3rd, 2025. By that time, we only need the number of participants you plan to register; names are not required yet.

 

Further information will be provided in the second mailing, which will be sent out in early December.

 

We look forward to welcoming you to our conference for an exciting time of exchange and debate.
