Definition:
A title for the outstanding delegates of a MUN conference.

The Diplomacy Award is awarded at the end of the MUN conference to outstanding delegates who have either contributed tremendously to conference documents or demonstrated a skill in directing the conference, establishing trust and prompting communication. A delegate as such is entitled "Best Delegate", or simply BD.

Examples:
Among the near 2,000 delegates, the two Taiwanese delegates shown in the picture above are on the list of Best Delegates in the WorldMUN2008, Puebla.

The ultimate goal of many delegates in a MUN conference is to become a BD.
