Oakridge MUN · Chapter XVI
Dear Delegates,
It is with immense pleasure and excitement that I welcome you to the 16th Edition of Oakridge Model United Nations 2026, held on the 24th, 25th and 26th of July.
It is truly amazing that this conference has been a platform for learning, innovation and transformation for 16 years, and continues to inspire with every new edition. Over the years, Oakridge MUN has grown into more than just a conference — it has become a tradition of collaboration, diplomacy, and leadership. This year will be no different; across the three days, you will not only be debating pressing global issues but also building friendships, exchanging ideas, and discovering the power of your own voice.
As Secretary-General, my commitment is to ensure that Oakridge MUN 2026 is a truly memorable experience for every delegate. Together, I, along with the Secretariat, will work tirelessly to create an atmosphere where debate thrives, ideas are respected, and each of you feels empowered to make this conference your own.
My own journey with Model United Nations began at Oakridge — with curiosity, a bit of nervousness, and a strong desire to learn. I hope each of you will use this conference as the starting point of your own journey — one that pushes you to grow, to question, and to realise that each of you is a force to be reckoned with, and no one can tell you otherwise.
The Secretariat and I eagerly look forward to welcoming you to Oakridge International School, Gachibowli, this July!
