What is MESAC?
ABA is one of six member schools of the Middle East South Asia Conference. The MESAC philosophy is dedicated to coordinating a range of sporting and other activities through inter-school collaboration. Participants in MESAC tournaments benefit in many ways.

Fine and performing arts activities

Cultural and intercultural opportunities
