1. A moderated caucus allows delegates to make short comments on a specific sub-issue. Typically, those who are willing to speak will raise up their placards and the Chairs will call on them to participate, one at a time. In order to move into a moderated caucus, the motion must include the overall speaking time, the time per speaker, and the sub-issue to be discussed.
2. In an unmoderated caucus, delegates can leave their seats and go talk to others freely and informally. This is usually when delegates find allies, form blocs and formulate working papers or draft resolutions.
3. Lastly, the consultation of the whole lies between a moderated and an unmoderated caucus. It is the delegates themselves, in spite of the Chairs, who direct the discussion. This way, it is a formal debate that does not impose a time limit per speaker in which delegates give the floor to each other.
