The AUR students will be representing Saudi interests and attempting to pass resolutions which the Kingdom would support on topics ranging from the proliferation of small arms to redefining the world refugee crisis. The students have been studying Saudi Arabia’s history and policies since October 2009 in preparation for the said conference.
