Stakeholder Participation
Coming from different segments of society and representing many different lived experiences, civil society stakeholders hold indispensable knowledge and perspectives. It is crucial for the future success and impact of the Panel to have the voices of civil society stakeholders heard and represented in OEWG 3.
A precondition for engagement by civil society organizations in OEWG 3 is accreditation. Organizations accredited to UNEP, ILO, WHO, SAICM, BRS, the Minamata Convention and the Montreal Protocol can participate in the upcoming OEWG 3 as observers.
