Interactive
expert panels
A
limited number of NGOs in consultative status with ECOSOC will be able to make
oral interventions during the interactive panels, subject to time
availability. Interventions must be focused on the theme of the panel.
Inputs on other issues will not be accommodated. Instructions will be communicated
via e-mail to each NGO representative requesting to make an intervention.

at interactive expert panels are NOT to be in the form of prepared statements;
NGOs are therefore not required to submit copies of such interventions. These
