Want to see natural resources. And to stop climate change.
Open Call (Deadline 1 June 2014): The NGO Branch of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs invites all NGOs to apply for Economic and Social council consultative (ECOSOC) status that enables organizations to have an opportunity to take part in UN deliberations.
This unique opportunity enables NGOs to exchange knowledge and get access to the ongoing work of ECOSOC, to its many subsidiary bodies, to the various human rights mechanisms of the United Nations, ad-hoc processes on small arms, as well as special events organized by the President of the General Assembly.
Applications are received throughout the year but the ones received before 1 June 2014 will be considered in 2015.
It's good to combat climate change to increase food production. I will be encouraging the people of Northern Ugandan if there are funding for it
It is AMAZING! I learnt diverse and very important topics from all over the world. I was particularly moved by topics on Poverty, Development, Environment, Science/Engineering Innovation. WELL COVERED!
If you want to produce a lot of good quality agricultural products in Bangladesh, it can be increased in the amount of government support.
