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.
The United Nations provides an impressive backdrop to our NMUN Conference. Opening sessions for the annual NMUN Conference are held in the General Assembly Hall at UN Headquarters. In addition final plenary sessions also are held at the UN.
Numerous recent NMUN Conference speakers are associated with the UN including UN Secretaries-General Ban Ki-moon and Kofi Annan.
UN officials have also served as advisory board members, and many student delegations meet with their official national delegations during the conference.
