iCSO - UN-DESA Civil Society System: UN-DESA has developed an integrated Civil Society Organizations (iCSO) System that greatly eases interactions among civil society organizations (CSOs) and the Department. The site provides online registration for non-governmental organizations (NGOs), facilitates the application procedure for consultative status with the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and helps those NGOs already accredited to the Council to submit their quadrennial reports and to designate representatives to the United Nations.
Please note that the log in information to the above system is the same as to the UN-DESA Event Management System.

Non-governmental organizations have been partners of the Department of Public Information (DPI) since its establishment in 1947. Official relationships between DPI and NGOs date back to 1968. The Economic and Social Council in its resolution 1297 called on DPI to associate NGOs with effective information programmes in place and thus disseminate information about issues on the UN’s agenda and the work of the Organization. Through associated NGOs DPI seeks to reach people around the world and help them better understand the work and aims of the United Nations. DPI-NGO Website.

The Directory of African NGOs contains regularly updated information by country and theme. The organizations are arranged by country, and under each country are listed alphabetically according to their official name within the country. The order of countries follows the English alphabet. The text appears in either English or French, regardless of the official language used by the NGO, as, in most cases, these were the two languages used in the questionnaire.* The main menu, which serves as table of contents, appears only in English.
