01 — The conference
Diplomacy, held to a higher standard.
OctaveMUN 2026 is where serious research meets fast-paced diplomacy. Across six dynamic committees, delegates go head-to-head on real agendas, draft sharp resolutions, and compete for top honors.
Five committee sessions, live crisis caucuses, a working international press corps and a formal voting procedure. No filler, no theatrics: agendas are drafted with practitioners and judged on research depth, negotiation and the quality of the documents you produce.
