Students in grades 6-12 are eligible to participate in this program that has been running since 1949. SRTM has partnered with the YMCA who hosts the conference to prepare students with the knowledge to engage their fellow delegates at the conference on global affairs, diplomacy, negotiation and decision making. SRTM teaches students parliamentary procedure, how to draft and present their bills and the basics of research and writing related to their work at the conference.
