Washington, DC
**Open to Collegiate Institutions**
Conference Fees: $55/delegate
Held annually in Washington, DC, the National University Model Arab League (NUMAL) celebrates its 38th year in 2021. Started as an informal demonstration simulation at Georgetown University in 1983, NUMAL has grown to host over 400 students from approximately 25 colleges and universities annually. Delegates train year-round through mock simulations, course-structured research, and participation in regional MAL conferences to prepare for this highly competitive international simulation.
Due to high demand, the National University MAL conference is by invitation only; to be added to the National University MAL wait-list, contact NCUSAR at 202-293-6466 or katie@ncusar.org.
