All accredited Non Government Organizations (NGOs) can now register delegates to attend the 58th meeting of the Commission on the Status of Women.
The number of representatives who can attend open official meetings
can be contingent on the availability of space. Live webcasts of
meetings will also be provided via United Nations Webcast, so everyone can at least hear and view the proceedings.
Registration is open from November 11th to January 27th, 2014. The maximum number that each accredited NGO can register is 20, although depending on volumes of registrations, this could be reduced, or the time period for registration could be shortened.
It is sometimes a challenge to attend the session that you want to. If for example, the session takes place in
the North Lawn Building, participants will need a secondary pass to
gain access. One or two such secondary passes per/organization will be
distributed at or near the registration site. Organizations should also
be aware that, in this context, entry into official meetings can still
not be guaranteed to all who wish to attend. But the good news is that there are lots of events off site, but close by. NGOs organize their own events, and there are lots to chose from.
