About the committee

International Press Corps (IPC)

The International Press Corps (IPC) gives delegates the opportunity to report on committee discussions, capture important moments, and share updates with the audience. Through articles, interviews, and creative reporting, delegates highlight key debates, different opinions, and important decisions made during the conference. The committee encourages participants to think critically, communicate effectively, and present the conference from a journalist’s perspective.

Press agencies

Choose a press agency to represent

In IPC you report as a journalist for one simulated press agency: you follow committees, interview delegates and publish accurate, fair coverage in that agency’s style. When you choose IPC as a preference you also rank an agency; the organisers assign press roles later.

Press-agency names are used for educational simulation. Participation does not imply affiliation with or endorsement by these organisations.

Preferences do not guarantee allocation. Choosing a preference does not reserve it, and several delegates may rank the same agency.

In plain English

What is IPC?

The International Press Corps is the conference newsroom. Journalists observe committees, ask questions and report on what happens — accurately, fairly and clearly.

No country is chosen. You rank one of 20 press agencies as your preference; press roles are assigned later by the organisers.

Good conference journalism is accurate, fair and clear: reporters listen carefully, quote people correctly, ask open questions in interviews and separate facts from opinion. The IPC brief is classified — details to be announced.

What delegates do

  • Observe committee sessions and take careful notes
  • Prepare questions and interview delegates respectfully
  • Check facts and quotes before writing
