Harvard Model Congress Asia

A nonprofit organization run entirely by Harvard undergraduates, HMCA is an annual conference held at a city in Asia each year where hundreds of international high school students learn and experience government while playing the roles of officials in the United States government and several international political bodies. HMC Asia strives to educate and foster the next generation of global leaders by offering a truly interactive program, featuring one-on-one communication with Harvard students, debate on pressing global issues, and cross-cultural connections among delegates from throughout Asia and around the world. Students from more than twenty nations converge at the conference and work together to address challenges facing governments across the world. At HMCA students discuss contemporary political issues, draft policy, report news stories, and decide court cases, all under the guidance of Harvard University students. HMC Asia is an officially recognized and wholly student-run organization at Harvard College. This coming year, HMCA will move to Seoul, Korea, in partnership with Seoul National University, and will be held on January 7-10, 2016, at the university's Gwanak campus.
