SUNMUN V
Orlando, FL
February 4-6, 2027
Dear Delegates, Faculty Advisors, and Friends,
On behalf of our Secretariat, it is my absolute pleasure to invite you to the fifth iteration of the University of Florida’s collegiate Model United Nations conference: SunMUN V. We are thrilled to welcome you back to Orlando — where diplomacy, creativity, and connection come to life.
My name is Kelly Rodriguez, and I am honored to serve as this year’s Secretary General. After welcoming you all last year as the Under Secretary General of Committees, I am beyond excited to lead this next chapter of SunMUN. The incredible memories I’ve made traveling the country with friends have truly been one of the highlights of my collegiate career. SunMUN has helped me grow not only professionally but as a person. I hope that this conference will give you all the chance to create life long memories in and out of the committee room.
For this iteration of SunMUN, we will be returning to the Sheraton Orlando Lake Buena Vista Resort in Orlando, Florida! We are proud to return to a beautiful hotel venue just steps from Disney Springs, solidifying our place as one of the most exciting and welcoming conferences in the Southeast. Whether you spend your night exploring downtown Orlando, joining us for our in-hotel festivities, or walking through Disney Springs with new friends, we promise something for everyone.
I am excited for all delegates to be able to experience the exciting lineup of committees we have created for this year. SunMUN will feature nine creative committees that cover a wide variety of topics that are designed to meet a wide range of interests and delegate styles. From the diplomacy of the General Assembly, creativity of Specialized, twists and turns in Crisis, and the high stakes pressure of the Ad-Hoc of the Secretary General, there is a committee for every type of delegate at SunMUN V.
But SunMUN is more than a location or committee list—it’s a chance to grow. As a delegate who has competed in Ad-Hoc rooms for many years, I understand the pressure that comes with competing. But I also know the joys and excitement that comes with it: the chance to surprise yourself, to grow in ways you didn’t expect, and to connect with others who willingly spend their weekends debating fictional scenarios, rewriting history, and creating a new reality one directive at a time. Whether this is your first conference or your twentieth, we hope SunMUN reminds you why you fell in love with Model UN in the first place
Warmly,
Kelly Rodriguez
Secretary-General, SunMUN V
