National Model United Nations Conference New York City

Held in New York City each spring, the National Model UN (NMUN) is the ultimate in model UNs. It offers model UNers several unique experiences.  The opening and closing sessions are held at the United Nations. Teams can meet with the real UN delegation of their assigned country. It is longer (5 days) and larger in every aspect – more delegates from more countries simulating more UN activities. It is also more expensive in every aspect, including air travel. New York position paper needs to be a 2 page position paper.
