It has hosted foreign delegations from the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, and Switzerland, and conducted seminars regarding the situation in Israel by both its Arab-Israeli and Jewish-Israeli members.
While participating in the EuroMUN, the Society's delegation met the Honorary Council of Israel to the Limburg region, and received vast media coverage by local Dutch newspapers and websites, presenting life in Israel according to the Jewish, Muslim and Christian delegate members. Delegations from universities across the globe were also in attendance, allowing the Israeli students to engage students from nations hostile to Israel in open dialogue.
