PRISMUN XI
United Nations Correspondents Association
Founded in 1948, the United Nations Correspondents Association (UNCA) serves as a collective platform for reporters and journalists to capture the essence of the various events taking place in the United Nations committees. Unlike traditional MUN committees representing countries, UNCA delegates recognize and embrace their roles as news agencies, which allows them to witness engaging committee discussions and generate insightful press releases. Being the voice to the general public, UNCA plays a crucial role in bridging key perspectives, ranging from international politics to environmental issues. The committee strives to spotlight the critical decisions that shape our future, and the impacts of these vital choices.
