Explore Atlanta

Atlanta is a dynamic global city and an ideal location for a Model United Nations conference. The Atlanta area has a vibrant and active Model United Nations community, with numerous high school and collegiate conferences throughout the year. However, many schools have expressed a desire for a more standardized, rigorous, and consistently organized experience. NHSMUN–ATL is designed to meet that need by bringing the IMUNA model—refined over decades—to the Southeast.
