New for this Academic Year, the African Studies Program is sponsoring an 8-person team to compete in the Annual National Model African Union Conference in Washington, D.C. The Pitt Model African Union Club will represent Libya and Eritrea at the 4-day conference, during which students from universities around the nation will simulate the proceedings of the African Union. Students prepare for months leading up to the conference, and they are briefed at the embassies of the countries which they represent.
