Background information on the Committee on NGOs

The Committee on Non-Governmental Organizations is a standing committee of the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). It reports directly to ECOSOC, and the two reports of its annual regular session (usually at the end of January) and resumed session (in May) include draft resolutions or decisions on matters calling for action by the Council. The Committee has 19 members who are elected on the basis of equitable geographical representation: 5 members from African States; 4 members from Asian States; 2 members from Eastern European States; 4 members from Latin American and Caribbean States; and 4 members from Western European and other States.

The term of office of its members is four years. The membership for the Committee for the four-year term beginning on 1 January 2015 and expiring on 31 December 2018, includes, in alphabetical order: Azerbaijan, Burundi, China, , Greece, Guinea, India, Iran (Islamic Republic of), Israel, Mauritania,

24

Nicaragua, Pakistan, Russian Federation, , Sudan, Turkey, United States of America, and (Bolivarian Republic of).

The current terms of reference of the Committee are set out in Resolution 1996/31 of 25 July 1996. In its proceedings the Committee is guided by the Rules of Procedure of the Council. The main tasks of the Committee are:

 Consideration of applications for consultative status and requests for reclassification submitted by NGOs;  Consideration of quadrennial reports submitted by NGOs in General and Special categories;  Implementation of the provisions of Council resolution 1996/31 and the monitoring of the consultative relationship;  Any other issues which ECOSOC may request the Committee to consider.

Online Access to Documentation of the Committee Online access to the documentation of the Committee (the “Paperless Committee” system) is restricted to members of the Committee.

Since the information posted online through the Paperless system contains detailed administrative and financial information about the applicant organizations, official documents that pertain to applications from NGOs and reclassification of status for NGOs in consultative status are therefore considered restricted documents. Summaries of quadrennial reports by NGOs, as reflected by the document numbers indicated in the text are freely available without access restrictions, from the Official Document System of the United Nations: http://ods.un.org. Documents can be retrieved by typing in the document number.

Reports of previous sessions of the Committee, as well as press coverage of the Committee issued on the days when it is in session, are available at: http://csonet.org

Information is subject to change. This is not an official document, and is issued for information only.
