Last Updated: May 28, 2009

Founded in 1969, YIRA is one of the largest and most vibrant student organizations on Yale’s campus, with an active membership approaching several hundred students and an e-bulletin reaching over eight hundred Yalies every week. Although we are an undergraduate organization, our members include both undergraduate and graduate students from a multitude of countries and backgrounds and a wide range of academic and professional interests. YIRA aspires to cultivate better relations between the Yale community and the United Nations. Currently, YIRA serves as an umbrella organization for a number of distinct initiatives all aimed at the promotion of awareness of international affairs.
