Last one, we promise! Its hard to believe that it's been a month already! This is a little window into all the laughter, learning, and connection that happened at our conference. A massive thank you to everyone who joined us and brought such incredible energy to every session!💙 We would also like to extende a huge shoutout to the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union! This entire experience was made possible with your support! #KULMUN2026

KULMUN's magic is fueled by our incredible partners! Now that the dust has settled on KULMUN 2026, we want to take a moment to specifically thank the sponsors who made this year’s experience possible for our delegates. Erasmus+: This project was co-funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. We would like to extend a massive thank you for your vital support in empowering youth diplomacy. With your help we were able to make our conference more accessible to even more students! 🍺 Duvel: Cheers to our returning sponsor! After intense days of debating, there was nothing like winding down with a Belgian classic at our socials (Remember to enjoy responsibly 😉). 🧀 Flandrien Cheese: Thank you for the delicious local touch at our receptions and for believing in the power of student diplomacy and the KULMUN community! 💙 ☕ Café Noir: Another returning sponsor! They provided the essential caffeine kick that kept our delegates sharp and focused through every morning session. KULMUN 2026 was better, sharper, and a lot more fun because of you.

It’s been nearly a month since we gathered in Leuven, but the energy of the 16th edition is still with us! From the first point of order to the closing ceremony, this year was truly special. Swipe through for a trip down memory lane and check out the intense committee sessions and breakthroughs and, of course, the people who made it all happen! We set out to host a week of quality debates, but along the way, we ended up witnessing the building of a community whose influence will last long after the final moderated caucus ended. The halls of Leuven might be quiet now, but the KULMUN spirit is still going strong. Thank you for making the 16th edition one to remember. See you at the next one. 💙
