"Strengthening Civil Society Engagement with the United Nations"

FES New York together with three other founding organizations of the campaign '1 for 7 billion' (United Nations Association-UK, CIVICUS and Avaa) co-produced this publication committed to a democratic and transparent election of the new Secretary-General.

This publication features practical recommendations on how the new Secretary General and the UN can improve multilateralism between governments and also with community leaders, civil society organizations and activists. At the heart of all these recommendations is a common message for António Guterres to build a more inclusive UN. The authors – ranging from youth activists, NGO directors and policy experts – call on the new Secretary-General to broaden and foster relationships with civil society on a wide spectrum of common interests.
