General Information

Committee Sessions

WYOMUN has featured a host of committees including the World Health Organization, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, and the League of Nations. In these committees, delegates represent United Nations member states, debate solutions to international issues, and develop resolutions that address these issues. WYOMUN has also featured non-UN crisis committees on a variety of topics such as the Vietnam War, the Chicano Movement, the Arab Spring and the Seven Years' War, and has occasionally ventured into pop culture with a committee on Stranger Things from Netflix, as well as one on the Harry Potter series.

Speakers and Partnering Associations

Each year, WYOMUN invites keynote speakers to address its delegates during opening ceremonies. Notable recent speakers have been Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown, President of the Puerto Rican Senate and current gubernatorial candidate Eduardo Bhatia, and Indiana University Maurer School of Law Vice President of International Affairs Hannah L. Buxbaum.

gollark: Ugh, somebody spammed SPUDNET-IR with Siri reports.
gollark: Anyway, presumably the remover tool downloaded an omnidisk onto it for some reason but didn't add a UUID or license or something. It should be logged to SPUDNET-IR actually.
gollark: The `not a directory` issue is caused by, probably, it deleting the potatOS user data folder. If that's missing, potatOS will recreate it with a mode-γ update.
gollark: * wrong
gollark: Ah, it must be loading an omnidisk but doing it worng.
