Informal Interactive Hearings with NGOs, Civil Society and the Private Sector - 12 July 2006
 

As part of the preparatory activities leading to the High-level Dialogue on International Migration and Development, the General Assembly will hold Informal Interactive Hearings with representatives of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), civil society organizations and the private sector on 12 July 2006 at United Nations headquarters in New York. The objective of the Informal Interactive Hearings is to provide an opportunity for NGOs, civil society and the private sector to interact with Member States and offer input for the High-level Dialogue.

“I attach great importance to the Informal Interactive Hearings of the General Assembly with Non-Governmental Organizations, Civil Society Organizations and the Private Sector on International Migration and Development, which will take place on 12 July 2006 at United Nations Headquarters in New York. It is critical that Member States have an exchange of views with a wide range of constituencies, including migrants themselves, when they are preparing for the High-level Dialogue on International Migration and Development in September.”
Kofi Annan
United Nations Secretary-General
