Washington D.C.

Embassy Briefings

While at the conference delegates can take advantage of its amazing location to visit one of the hundreds of embassies in teh arena and attend an information session about current international issues. There's even a chance they'll meet their committee counterpart in real life!

Pentagon and Capitol Hill Tours

Take a tour of one of the largest office  buildings in the world with three times the floor space of the Empire State Building to learn about the mission of the DoD and its role in ensuring our national security.

Museums and Monuments
D.C. has the distinction of being home to the monuments of some of the great sharpers of our nation.

At the Conference

Speakers
Committees have the opportunity to host a specialist from a field relevant  to their topic, often ambassadors or policy makers, to speak with the delegates about the realities of international relations. This allows the delegates an exciting opportunity to see how the debates and decision they are making in committee are mirrored in the real world.

Hilltop Madness
Become a Hoya! Experience the high-energy fun of Georgetown's finest performing arts groups, from ballroom dancers to a Capella groups. Get a taste of life as a Hoya and experience Georgetown's hospitality while enjoying a night of singing, dancing, and free ice cream!

Delegate Dance
NAIMUN encourages delegates to get to know each other out of committee.

Besides, you never know when that out-of-committee friend will come in handy in writing resolutions!

 

Each and every aspect and feature of NAIMUN LI is geared toward providing our delegates with the most exciting and fulfilling experiences, and we're confident that NAIMUN weekend will be a highlight in your school year.
