61st Annual DPI/NGO Conference



IFNGO – and therefore IBSSA as well – was invited to attend

the 61st Annual DPI/NGO Conference
at UNESCO PARIS, FRANCE 3 - 5 September 2008


Dear friends,

As you may know, this is the first time that the Conference will be held outside of New York. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization will host the three-day event at their headquarters in Paris, France from 3 to 5 September 2008.

NGO representatives were invited to provide input on the suggested topics listed in the Provisional Agenda, as well as to nominate speakers. The deadline for providing input on the topics of round-tables and breakout sessions was 11 April 2008.

Thank you for your kind attention to the matter and your continuous support in the Conference planning process.
