Honoring the Consular Corps of Boston
We organize this signature event annually to honor the Consular Corps of Boston – the local representatives of more than 60 UN Member States – and to highlight our mission of promoting global citizenship.

The Evening Benefits Global Education in Local Schools
Proceeds from the gala will help give more than 5,000 middle and high school students the opportunity to learn about global issues and enhance important life skills through UNAGB’s Model UN programs. In Model UN, students (or “delegates,” as we refer to them!) step into the role of diplomats negotiating solutions to complex global issues, such as human rights and climate change. Students leave with the ability to communicate, collaborate, and problem-solve important global issues and are inspired to be the leaders of tomorrow.
