Invitation

Letter from the Secretary-General

As is longstanding tradition, SOMA 52 will be held on the University of Toronto’s historic St. George campus in the heart of downtown Toronto. Our historic venue, coupled with Toronto’s openness and diversity, will uniquely immerse our delegates, creating engagement with global citizenship.

A primary focus of the Secretariat this year is to create accessible opportunities for people of all backgrounds to attend our conference. At SOMA 52, we are excited to announce the continuation of our SOMA Scholarship program, which covers fees for those in need. More details will be released with the opening of registration!

I am honoured to be leading SOMA’s 52nd iteration and am endlessly grateful for the team that I have had the pleasure of working with for the past few months. We look forward to your attendance, and to delivering one of North America’s premiere MUN conferences!

Regards,

Adam Mawani

Dear esteemed Delegates, Faculty Advisors, and friends of SOMA,

On behalf of the SOMA 52 Secretariat, I am delighted to extend you an invitation to the 52nd iteration of the Southern Ontario Model United Nations Assembly, from April 28th to 30th, 2025! Since its inception in 1972, SOMA has established itself as one of North America’s most prestigious secondary-school-level conferences; it is the oldest high-school-run MUN conference in the world. With over 600 delegates in annual attendance, SOMA strives to deliver the values of the United Nations: diplomacy, cooperation, and peaceful problem-solving achieved through compromise, discussion, and collaboration. My colleagues and I are working to deliver an engaging conference that fosters global perspectives, cooperation, and meaningful dialogue, while building lasting connections and great Model UN memories!
