A Day of Debate, Exchange and Shared Perspectives
On January 30th, 2026, the NMUN Tübingen delegation took part in the Hohenheim Castle Model United Nations (HCMUN), set in the impressive and historic surroundings of Hohenheim Castle. The unique venue created an inspiring atmosphere that perfectly complemented a day filled with lively debate, collaboration, and international exchange.
This year’s conference focused on two pressing global challenges: ensuring equitable and inclusive access to education and implementing a circular economy for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). After a series of engaging opening speeches and initial discussions, delegates voted to concentrate on the first topic.
Throughout the sessions, it quickly became clear that education was seen by many as a cornerstone for a more sustainable and just future. Delegates brought forward a wide range of ideas, from improving funding mechanisms in lower-income countries to expanding access in rural areas. Particular attention was also given to the potential of digital solutions, such as artificial intelligence and mobile technologies, to create more inclusive and accessible education systems.
The conference, organized by students of the University of Hohenheim and joined by participants from the University of Heidelberg, stood out for its especially open and collegial atmosphere. Delegates engaged in thoughtful discussions, built alliances, and respectfully navigated differing perspectives, reflecting both the challenges and the potential of multilateral cooperation.
Despite the limited time, motivation remained high throughout the day. Delegates stayed fully engaged until the very end, working intensively to develop and refine their ideas. For the NMUN Tübingen delegation, HCMUN 2026 was not only an opportunity to apply academic knowledge in practice, but also a chance to grow as a team and gain new perspectives on global challenges.
We are grateful for this enriching experience and look forward to carrying these insights into our continued journey towards NMUN New York.
