Structure of a press release
A press release comprises a title, a date, a lead paragraph summarising the information in three lines, a body text and an "About OIMAP" section recalling the Organization's mission. Press contacts appear at the end of the text.
This structure is constant, which allows newsrooms to quickly pick up the essential information.
Sorting and searching
Press releases can be filtered by year, by theme and by region concerned. A keyword search makes it possible to find a specific text, including among press releases from previous years.
Older texts are kept in the archive. They are not modified, even when some figures have been updated since.
Citing a press release
For an exact citation, give the title, the date and the link of the press release. Cited figures must be accompanied by their reference year: a 2024 figure cannot be presented as current in 2026.
Extracts may be freely reproduced for information purposes. Any full reproduction requires mentioning OIMAP as the source.
Embargoed press releases
Some press releases are sent in advance to registered journalists, with an embargo date. The embargo allows an in-depth story to be prepared, for example on the publication of a report, without prejudice to the media.
Failure to respect an embargo may result in the suspension of early access to the Organization's information.
