Post-2015 negotiations: 21 January interactive dialogue with Major Groups and other stakeholders

We have received the following information from the UN Non-Governmental Liaison Service for organizations wishing to speak in the interactive dialogue with Major Groups and other stakeholders:

Dear Colleagues, 

On the afternoon of Wednesday, 21 January, the intergovernmental negotiations of the post-2015 development agenda will include an interactive dialogue with Major Groups and other stakeholders. 

This interactive dialogue is currently scheduled for 3:00-5:00pm, as indicated in the programme for the 19-21 January stocktaking session for the intergovernmental negotiations.

If you are a representative of a civil society organization, non-governmental organization, or an organization participating in the Major Groups, and are interested in speaking during this interactive dialogue, please apply here by 11:59pm NY time on 16 January.

All applications received will be published automatically here.

The Stakeholder Steering Committee (that was selected through an open nomination process in November) will create the speakers list for the interactive dialogue from among the applications received via a process facilitated by UN DESA-DSD and UN-NGLS. The Committee will ensure regional and gender balance, and diversity of age and expertise in the overall list, and try to accommodate as many constituencies as possible, within the time period that will be allocated for the interactive dialogue.
