The Model United Nations conference is held in Burbank, California at the Marriott Hotel. This four-day conference is the heart of the MUN program. Delegates will be given a chance to put all their research and practice to work as they perform their roles and explore how the United Nations is run. Attending, student ambassadors take on the roles of UN organ members, chairs, and presiding officers. In this unique experience, they deal with international issues that affect our world.
The hotel is located in a safe neighborhood, but advisors must accompany delegates should they leave the hotel. How and when delegates are allowed to be "in town" is up to the individual delegation (excluding restrictions explicitly stated in the Code of Conduct). If delegates will have time to shop and eat downtown, they will need to bring extra money.
Conference fees include programming and meal costs at this conference, except for one Delegation Dinner. Delegations will be responsible for covering hotel room rates, transportation, and any meals purchased to/from the conferences. Current hotel rates and conference fees can be requested from the CalYMCA office. These fees are typically included in the program registration fee charged by the individual YMCA delegations.
