Host the Annual Session
Is your school interested in hosting an upcoming session of Model United Nations of the Far West? Would you like to help run the conference, set agenda topics, or chair a committee? If so, you are encouraged to prepare a bid proposal and share your plans for a future conference.
In addition to being both exciting and personally fulfilling, serving in the Upper-Secretariat or chairing a conference committee is a distinguished addition to any resume or curriculum vitae. Hosting a session of MUNFW can also serve as a catalyst for gaining institutional support for your school’s Model United Nations program.
Schools may submit a bid to serve as the singular host of a given session or collaborate with other participating schools to present a consortium bid. Interested students or groups should communicate their intent to bid to the Executive Director prior to conference, and should consult with their faculty advisors regarding their bid prior to the Membership Meeting that takes place Saturday morning during conference. Bids must be presented to the Membership Committee and accompanied by a theme and provisional agenda (committees and topics) for an upcoming session.
Share your ideas. Take the lead. For more information on putting together a bid, refer to the documents listed on the Secretariat page or contact oed@munfw.org
