Some MUNs have a council called Press Corps (or International Press Gallery) where delegates write articles representing news agencies. These delegates spectate council proceedings.

Usually, every council will have a press conference with press delegates, where press delegates are given the opportunity to ask questions to specific delegates, groups of delegates, or the entire council.

Press conferences are held by the editors of the Press Corps (a.k.a. the Dais of the Press Corps).

Delegates’ responses to the questions during the press conference can affect your performance and therefore your potential for awards.
