Urgent: General Assembly Special Session in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, 3-4 December

Please note that we have received the following information on the above event.

The portal for applications for the special-accreditation of ECOSOC non-accredited CSOs for the UNGASS in response to the COVID-19 pandemic (03-04 December 2020) has been opened yesterday 12 November. 

The deadline for the expression of interest to participate in the Special Session is set for 16 November 2020, 12 noon EST. Our apologies for this very tight timeline. As the list has to be confirmed by member states, it is just not possible to keep the application window open for a longer time. 

Please feel free to share this link and information with your interested partner organizations and colleagues: https://indico.un.org/event/35461/
