    The IRC hosts five conferences focused on community outreach during the year:

    - Sustainable Development Goals Model United Nations (SDGMUN)

    - Regional Model United Nations (RMUN)

    - Northeast Regional Model Arab League (NERMAL)

    - Middle School Model United Nations (MSMUN)

    - December Invitational Model United Nations (DIMUN)

     

    These conferences are held in partnership with the United Nations Association of Greater Boston (UNAGB) and the National Council on US - Arab Relations (NCUSAR). Our team here at Northeastern has been partnering with UNAGB and NCUSAR, Boston area and Nationwide organizations respectively. The IRC has worked with UNAGB since 2003 to host conferences on our campus for middleschoolers and highschoolers to engage in the Model United Nations that we have come to enjoy. We have worked with NCUSAR since the early 2000s, hosting NERMAL at a regional College Level for students across the country.

     

    Northeastern students provide the upper secretariat for each conference and coordinate all staff training. We pride ourselves in offering quality training praised by external Faculty and Student Advisors that enables staff members of each conference to give those students participating in the program the best experience.

     

    We believe this type of community engagement is critical to our mission as a student group. It highlights the potential for internationally-focused experiential education to reach all ages groups.
