This year, the accreditation system has been changed by introducing the new platform INDICO, which replaces the CSONet. To be accredited for the 17th session of UNPFII, two steps are necessary.
- Create or update your profile at the integrated Civil Society Organization System (iCSO).
- Register for the conference via INDICO: https://reg.unog.ch/event/23798/registration/
There are different steps, depending if you have previously participated at a session of UNPFII or if it is the first time.
For NGOs with ECOSOC Status, IPOs and Academics that have participated at previous session of the Permanent Forum, you need to do the following:
- First, review and update your contact details in the integrated Civil Society Organizations (iCSO) System: http://bit.ly/unpfii-updatecontact
- After you logged in: click on Profile and change if necessary the contact details.
- Under Contacts & Participants you can enter the details of your members of the organisation
- Once completed, you register for the conference via INDICO by 2 April 2018: https://reg.unog.ch/event/23798/registration/
- To register you will need: your passport or identification document and a photo.
