Committees, Councils, and Topics: UA-MUNC is a leading Model United Nations Conference offering the world's most accurate simulation of the real United Nations. Throughout this pioneering event, delegates will have an unparalleled opportunity to engage in a Model UN setting that accurately mirrors how UN meetings are conducted, all while discussing critical topics that are currently at the forefront of the agenda of the UN, as well as civil rights organizations and leading universities worldwide. The conference will introduce numerous groundbreaking committees to provide an ideal platform to discuss the parameters of each topic from the perspective of its specialized organ at the United Nations. The accuracy of the conference simulation and the UN decision-making process will be maintained, as committees are developed based on thorough research and in consultation with relevant UN experts from each of the organs simulated.
