Ambassadors & Bloc Representatives



Role Description:

A State representative is never free in making his/her own choices. Aside from the pressure by other delegates and by the press, she/he also has to deal with pressure from his/her ambassador or bloc representative. These are highly experienced diplomats that have for purpose coordinating policies between committees, in order for each decision made to be coherent with other decisions within a same negotiating bloc (for Bloc Representatives) and amongst representatives from a same country (for Ambassadors).

They function as coaches, to make sure that nobody is far off her/his State's policy, and greatly contributes to the realism of the conference.
