ECOSOC-Accredited Civil Society Coalition
Where civil society enters the room at the United Nations.
NGO CSW/NY carries the voices and leadership of feminist and women's rights organizations from around the world into UN deliberations — including the annual Commission on the Status of Women.
Four standing items on our agenda.
Everything NGO CSW/NY runs traces back to one of these, year-round — not only during the Commission's spring session.
