NEW DELEGATIONS | NMUN was proud to welcome the first student delegations from Bahrain, Belgium, Ecuador and Latvia to the simulation – allowing all attendees to hear from their peers about hopes for the future.
SCHOLARSHIPS | The presence of students of diverse ethnic and national backgrounds adds to the realism of the simulation. Through two scholarship programs, the NCCA grants funds to defray the cost of attending NMUN. Eleven schools received assistance in bringing 96 students to NMUN.
