- World-Class Model UN:
Model UN is integral to the YIRA experience. Our Model UN Team, MUNTY, competes at collegiate Model UN conferences in the United States and abroad, and is the top-ranked team in the nation. We also organize three Model UN conferences, drawing some 2,000 delegates every year to Yale.s campus from colleges and high schools in every corner of the world. - Fascinating Speakers and Events:
Our Speakers Committee brings prominent and interesting speakers to campus to speak on international relations and global issues. These events range from speeches to panel discussions, and Master.s Teas co-organized with a Yale residential college to debates and more intimate dinners. Our speakers include politicians, officials in governments and NGOs, ambassadors, and journalists and academics. - Reaching Out to New Haven Schools:
Our Outreach program brings both YIRA.s members and resources into New Haven public schools. Members of the program engage high school students in small, after-school classes, where these students learn about, debate and discuss international relations and global affairs. Our curriculum also emphasizes important skills, such as public speaking, debate and research skills. - International Trips
YIRA offers its members the unique opportunity to organize and lead trips to anywhere in the world. These trips are generally political or service-oriented, and allow our members to experience topical global issues in a real, hands-on way. Past trips have included election monitoring trips to Venezuela, Kenya and Mauritania, and service trips to Ecuador, Georgia and the Philippines.
