The NGO/DPI Executive Committee would like to update NGOs on the status of plans for annual conferences.

Regarding the 65th UN DPI NGO Conference, there have been several expressions of interest by Member States to host the conference in the next several years. However, we do not have definite commitments.  As adequate time is needed to plan each conference, the Annual Conference will not be held at its usual time, the end of August/beginning of September this year.

Please also check the DPI NGO Relations website, www.un.org/dpi/ngosection  for Conference updates.

As of March 20, 2012 the Bonn Declaration was issued as a General Assembly document in all UN official languages – A/66/750
