Buses and public transportation
Public Transport in The Hague is convenient and easy to use. We advise you to contact the concierge of the hotel you are staying at to find out the best way to reach the World Forum by public transport.
Your HTM Card will serve as Special Public Transport Conference Ticket and is valid when shown together with your THIMUN ID badge on any HTM bus or tram in The Hague, Scheveningen and Kijkduin from Monday 27th January 2020 up to and including Friday 31st January 2020.
Please note that for schools staying in hotels in Scheveningen or the City Centre additional trams (clearly marked THIMUN CONGRES) will ride between the Noorderstrand and City Centre to the World Forum between 8.00 and 9.00 am and between 17.00 and 18.00 pm (not on Wednesday afternoon). If a tram/bus is fully occupied please have your students wait for the next tram/bus which will follow asap.
Badges
Take great care of your THIMUN badge. If you do not have a badge, you will not be allowed into meetings or the General Assembly. A new badge can only be applied for at the Information Desk by a MUN-Director on behalf of the delegate. The delegate must pay a fee of EUR 30.00 at the time of request. Badge changes or new badges that are requested before 10:00 can be picked up after 14:00.
Badges will not be changed when minor spelling mistakes have been made with regards to the name of the delegate.
Cloakroom
Throughout the Conference week the World Forum cloakroom in the entrance lobby is available for students and MUN-Directors to leave their coats. The World Forum charge is 1.50 Euro per item. Please note however that the Convention Centre will not accept (hand)bags or laptops. You will have to keep these with you at all times.

Posters and Notices
NO posters or notices are allowed on any walls, doors or other areas in the Convention Centre.
Photocopying and Secretariat
The Administrative Staff in the Secretariat provide several important services to the delegates. As many delegates want to use these services at the same time, the Secretariat is usually very busy. Delegates are therefore requested to be patient and cooperative. Photocopying, such as Country/Delegation stationary and other valid documents, will be done at EUR 0.10 per copy.
Smoking Areas
Smoking is not permitted anywhere inside the World Forum. The designated smoking area is outside, in front of the Convention Centre.
Souvenirs
At the THIMUN Sales stand you can purchase your personal THIMUN souvenirs. The stand is located on the first floor in front of the glass wall towards the World Forum Theatre.
Voting Placards
A placard with the name of the delegation is provided on the basis of ONE per delegate. You need it for voting. Don’t forget to bring it with you to all sessions. Lost placards will not be replaced.
