ECDD Public Information Meeting: Registration



WHO Expert Committee meetings are closed to the public. However, a public information meeting will be held so that individuals and entities external to WHO may listen to an update on current and future activities of the ECDD Secretariat, and to provide comment on issues on the ECDD agenda.

Individuals or representatives of public and private institutions and civil society who wish to present information to committee members on issues related to the meeting agenda are invited to register their interest to attend a virtual information meeting on 14 October at 10.00 CEST (Central European Summer Time).

Participation in the information meeting is by registration only. Please register in advance using this registration link.

How to request to make an intervention at the Public Information Meeting



Once WHO has processed your registration, you will receive a form to complete where you can request:

To submit a written statement relating to items on the agenda of the upcoming meeting To request a slot to make an oral presentation* (live or pre-recorded) relating to items on the agenda of the upcoming meeting

One request must be completed for each individual/entity wishing to attend or present.

More detailed information and instructions on how to participate will be sent once you register for the meeting, so we encourage participants to fill in the registration form as early as possible.

* There are a limited number of time slots available for presentations, therefore the ECDD Secretariat may not be able to accommodate all requests to be on the open session agenda. All requests for interventions will be considered, and further instructions will be sent to successful candidates after all submissions are received. Successful requests for presentations will be allocated approx. 3-5 minutes (tbc) at the meeting.
