The NWACC Model United Nations (UN) team competes in UN conferences and tournaments as part of class assessments and for fun. During these conferences, you can role-play different countries in UN committees, and learn about global political systems, international policy issues (like global warming, child brides and human rights), and international governance.

Participation also gives you the opportunity to sharpen your skills in public speaking, debating, writing, critical thinking and team work. No previous knowledge of Model UN, the United Nations, foreign policy, or politics is required to participate or to be successful.
