The United Nations General Assembly will hold its third high-level meeting on the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases on 27 September 2018 in New York with the overall theme “Scaling up multi-stakeholder and multisectoral responses for the prevention and control of non-communicable diseases in the context of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”.
An interactive hearing will be convened by the President of the General Assembly on 5 July 2018, in New York, as part of the preparatory process for the high-level meeting.
Accreditation is now open until 23 May 2018 for relevant non-governmental organizations, civil society organizations, academic institutions and the private sector to attend the high-level meeting and participate in the interactive civil society hearing.
Non-governmental organizations in consultative status with ECOSOC do not need to apply at this stage.
Please note that once the accreditation process is finalized, each participant will need to register separately to attend the interactive civil society hearing and the high-level meeting. Separate registration forms for both events will be opened in due course.
