Guiding Principle
Cooperative, hands-on learning allows students to confront a range of topics with the perspective of their assigned country or organization. Through these experiences - during preparation, in committee sessions, and even in hallway caucuses - students develop an appreciation of differing viewpoints, the frustration of negotiation, the rewards of cooperation and a broader view of the human side of international relations and diplomacy

UN Involvement
The National Collegiate Conference Association (NCCA), sponsor of NMUN, is a recognized Non-Governmental Organization associated with the United Nations Department of Public Information. Numerous NMUN Conference speakers are associated with the UN including UN Secretaries-General Ban Ki-moon, Kofi Annan and Boutros Boutros-Ghali. UN officials have also served as advisory board members, and many student delegations meet with their official national delegations during the conference.
