Bringing NGO expertise to the United Nations

CONGO's NGO Committees bring together NGOs, members of the CONGO secretariat and government delegations to discuss pertinent themes and issues before the UN and the international community. CONGO members and the larger NGO community work together through these committees to share information, to cooperate on substantive issues and to bring NGO expertise into the discussions of governments in UN fora. CONGO's NGO Committees operate in Geneva, New York and Vienna.
