What is AMUNs Rapporteur Department?

The Rapporteur Department was created to ensure resolutions and reports follow the proper format and the content is within purview. As members of the Dais, Rapporteurs create a link between Representatives and the Dias. The Rapporteur and the Special Rapporteur are members of the Rapporteur Department, seated within the committee rooms. A Rapporteur is assigned to general committees, such as ECOSOC, whereas a Special Rapporteur is assigned to special committees in which a report is written. Both serve the same general function. Rapporteurs are placed in committee rooms to help Representatives in drafting their resolutions or reports, making sure the resolutions or reports are formatted properly and are within purview. Rapporteurs have a knowledge of proper resolution format and committee specific content knowledge, making them qualified to establish purview.
