First of all, BIMUN only administers certificates from the closure of one conference to the start of the next session. As such, certificates for BIMUN 2022 and prior sessions are no longer being issued.
How do I prepare for the conference?

Once allocated a country to represent and a committee to debate in, you will have ample time to familiarise yourself with the topics of discussion and the ways of Model United Nations. Study guides for the topics debated in the specific committee will be made available. BIMUN also has a number of more general help guides to assist delegates in their preparation. All preparatory documents will be sent to successful applicants who have made financial commitment to attend BIMUN 2025.

What happens after I apply?

Following application, the BIMUN Team will review your application and either approve or decline it. Please note rejections are rare, but may become more frequent as capacity is neared. As we maintain beginner, intermediate and advanced committees, we cater for a wide variety of experience with Model United Nations and debate.
If approved, your application will be given time from approval to make payments for the delegate fees. If the deadline of the early bird opportunity is not met, you are still given opportunity to make payment during the regular registration window. If the regular registration deadline is not met, your application to BIMUN will be automatically declined. If payment is made successfully, you will be admitted to the conference. Thereafter you will be given a country of representation in specified committee, to be allocated by the BIMUN Team. Delegates who have paid and been accepted in the early bird window will receive theirs in April, while those for the late registration window will receive theirs in May or June. Each participant will then have time to prepare themselves for the conference, researching their topics and reading BIMUN’s Delegates Preparatory documents.

Can I attend BIMUN alone or do I have to be part of a larger delegation?
You can register as an independent delegate or as a delegation.
I have never participated in Model United Nations before. Can I still attend the conference?
