HMCME 2027
Harvard Model Congress Middle East
Harvard Model Congress Middle East is a government simulation conference run entirely by Harvard undergraduates. For three days, students will take on the roles of UN representatives, US Senators and Representatives, and Qatari Parliament representatives to tackle some of the world's most pressing issues. Through public speaking, negotiation, and compromise, delegates will challenge themselves to understand the nuances of politics and the intricacies of legislation. Delegates will work hand-in-hand with Harvard students to delve deeply into world issues and develop complex solutions.
