Participation in COP 16/CMP 6
|
UNFCCC sessions are not open to the public. Participation in COP 16/CMP 6 is limited to duly nominated
representatives of Parties, observer States, United Nations organizations, admitted observer
organizations and accredited press/media.
Parties: the governments nominate their respective representatives to participate and
negotiate at the sessions of the Convention and its Kyoto Protocol. This may include ministers,
negotiators, and those who the governments consider are necessary to achieve their goals during the
sessions. Notification for Parties will be issued in September 2010 and will contain the deadline for
submission of nominations and other details for participation.
United Nations System: the United Nations bodies, specialized
agencies and related organizations (such as WMO, UNEP, IPCC, UNDP, the World Bank, GEF, convention
secretariats etc.) are allowed to observe the proceedings. Each organization nominates a number of
representatives to attend the sessions at their discretion. Notifications for UN organizations will be
issued in September 2010 and will contain the deadline for submission of nominations and other details
for participation.
Observer Organizations: the Convention allows duly admitted
intergovernmental organizations and
civil society organizations to observe the
sessions of the Convention and its Kyoto Protocol. UNFCCC has launched an online registration system
for all sessions. Once the notification for a session has been posted, the designated contact point
(DCP) of the admitted observer organization will have approximately four weeks in which to nominate
names via the online registration system. No nominations will be accepted after the deadline which will
be set in the notification. Information about the online registration system can be found at https://onlinereg.unfccc.int/.
