International Press Corps (IPC)

The Press Corps consists of news agency representatives assigned to cover the committee proceedings in the conference. Our news agencies represent various regions across the globe - representative of the diverse ways news topics are reported in the media. Delegates in this committee will be tasked with writing on-the-spot articles about the proceedings in various other committees.

Ad Hoc Committee

Ad Hoc is a unique crisis committee designed to challenge each delegate expertise in their respective country as they face a variety of topics that stem from our ASFMUN committees. Delegates are expected to master country policy, as they will not be made aware of the topic until they are in committee session. This is one of the most challenging committees ASFMUN offers.

Conscience Programme

Our conscience programme makes ASFMUN unique. The conference goes beyond committee doors, integrating service learning and opportunities so students get to engage firsthand with the issues they're debating.
