LOBBYING PROCESS

Preparing for Lobbying

Lobbying is perhaps the most important part of the THIMUN Conference, as it is when fruitful discussions take place to create the best resolutions possible. Good resolutions with viable solutions are to be produced as a result of lobbying.

For THIMUN The Hague 2025, delegates should prepare to give a opening speech, the list of delegations giving opening speeches in the assigned forum are published in the web-app under Opening Speeches list.

 

Opening Speeches

Opening Speeches will be entertained in this conference.

These speeches will be prepared and given by the Ambassadors and Heads of Delegations in their GA Committees. Additionally, there will be other delegates that will be asked to make an opening speech during their first formal session in their respective forums. These will be on a list that is published in our web-app.

When do you deliver the Opening Speech?

On Tuesday morning after the preparatory meetings, Committees, Sub-commissions and ECOSOC will begin with Opening Speeches. These delegates will deliver a speech (40 – 60 seconds) stating their views. They will then move on to lobbying for Issue 1 & 2 and continue on Thursday with lobbying for Issue 3.

Lobbying Groups

The Research Reports for the issues on the agenda have been uploaded in the section Issues and Research Reports. All delegates are expected to read the research reports of their respective forums.

Delegates should choose one of the first two issues for lobbying purposes, and for the last lobbying session on Thursday all delegates will need to lobby for the third issue. This format will allow delegates to contribute to a resolutions on at least two issues.
