What is DIRA?
DIRA is the Duke International Relations Association. We are the home of Model United Nations on campus and the premier Duke student organization dedicated to the study of international relations. |
What do we do?
DIRA hosts two conferences per year. For high school students, we host the Duke University Model United Nations Conference (DUMUNC). For college students, we host the Duke International Security Conference (DISCON). We also field a competitive Away Team that competes at collegiate conferences across the United States and Canada. Finally, we publish Borderless Magazine, a biannual journal that highlights student perspectives on international relations, multiculturalism, and foreign policy. |
