URUMUN is the MUN of the study association of International and European law of Utrecht University. This will be the fifth edition of URUMUN, now taking place online.


The theme of this year's conference is "Re-Thinking Leadership and Power: how to deal with the crises of the 21st century". We have six committees that range from women's right, inclusion of non-Western medicine, food as a peace instrument and more.

The conference fee includes a social package, a goodiebox and snacks. We will use Zoom and gather.town as our two main platforms
