The London School of Economics Model United Nations is a three-day academic conference that provides university students with opportunities to meaningfully engage with current-day geopolitical crises, develop their public speaking and teamwork skills, and meet world-class speakers in the field of international affairs, security and public policy.
Since its inception in 2006, LSEMUN's mission has been to:
Navigating Crises - Transforming Challenges into Opportunities ?
In 2026, LSEMUN will return for its 20th edition. This means that we are taking a new approach to how the conference is run, as well as redefining Model United Nations Conferences in London. LSEMUN used to be a crisis-only conference, which provide for a far more dynamic experience. This could mean dealing with confrontations between groups with mutually exclusive aims in real-time, and working with the frontroom and backroom simultaneously. We are of the opinion that crises scenarios do not necessarily manifest themselves in simulations only but one that applies to other committees, including General Assembly Committees and a plethora of specialised committees. The 2026 edition will feature an unprecedented range of committees and topic choices, as well as one that celebrates diversity, innovation and creativity.
The London Social Experience ??
LSEMUN is a unique opportunitiy to meet delegates from various universities across the United Kingdom and around the world. We are dedicated to providing a conference that allows delegates to interact with new faces, as well as a gateway to the London MUN Circuit. We also know that the social experience does not end in the Committee Rooms. Hence, the signature LSEMUN Boat Party on the Thames will be making a return in 2026, alongside various opportunities to engage with LSE's most treasured activity - networking with like-minded diplomats.
Confirmed delegates who demonstrate a valid change of circumstances (such as change in university assessments, visa denial, transportation issues, etc.) will be able to request a refund by emailing the Secretariat at lsemun@lsesu.org. Please note that this is subject to discretion by the Secretariat. Please note that no refunds will be entertained after 25 February 2026.
Delegations will be able to change the number of delegates attending a conference for any reason, free of charge, until 1 February 2026. After which, the Refund Policy will apply.
Delegates will be asked during the application process if you require a visa to enter the United Kingdom. If this is the case, the Secretariat will be in contact after an application has been submitted, and relevant delegate fees have been paid. Due to regulatory changes with the Home Office, we are now required to conduct further checks before issuing delegates with an invitation letter to attend the Conference. As such, we may request one or more of the following:
The Secretariat reserves the right to deny issuance of a visa letter should we request further information and they are not received by the specified deadline. Please note that you should reserve ample time to apply for a tourist visa from the Home Office, and we are unable to issue visa letters after 25 February 2026.
Refunds will only be entertained if we have issued you with an invitation letter, but your visa application has still been denied by the Home Office before 25 February 2026.
