Model NATO Summit Bratislava: A Historic First for Slovakia
In 2026, Bratislava will proudly host the first-ever Model NATO Summit in Slovakia, marking a significant milestone in the country’s tradition of fostering diplomatic excellence and global awareness. As pioneers of this initiative, we aim to provide participants with a unique opportunity to engage in the intricate workings of NATO, tackling pressing geopolitical challenges through collaboration, negotiation, and strategic thinking.
Drawing inspiration from NATO’s motto, “Animus in consulendo liber” (A mind unfettered in deliberation), the NATOBA Summit invites students to step into the shoes of NATO delegates, working together to craft solutions to issues impacting global security and stability. The summit offers a platform to explore real-world policy dilemmas, sharpen leadership and communication skills, and understand the complexities of international defense cooperation.
What sets us apart is not only our groundbreaking approach but also the incredible support we’ve garnered from a diverse range of prestigious sponsors. Backed by organizations dedicated to the advancement of diplomacy, security, and education, the Bratislava Model NATO Summit stands as a symbol of excellence in both execution and ambition. These partnerships reflect the trust placed in our vision and further elevate the experience, ensuring participants have access to world-class resources and expertise.
By hosting this historic event in the heart of Slovakia, we aim to empower the next generation of leaders to engage critically with global issues, foster teamwork across diverse perspectives, and uphold the values of unity and resilience in a rapidly changing world.
Join us in this groundbreaking endeavor and be part of shaping the future of international diplomacy and security. The journey begins here, in Bratislava.
All delegations are welcome, but please keep in mind that you should contact us before you apply, allowing us to plan accordingly and prepare for the expected number of participants.
