The United Nations Non-Governmental Liaison Service (UN-NGLS or NGLS) is an inter-agency programme of the United Nations mandated to promote and develop relations between the United Nations and civil society organizations. The NGLS operates autonomously across the United Nations system and with civil society constituencies and social movements on cross-cutting and emerging issues on the UN agenda. For example, NGLS currently focuses on the Post-2015 Development Agenda. UN-NGLS advises organizations on opportunities to engage with the UN and facilitates their participation in various UN processes and events (conferences, hearings, workshops, etc.). Since its creation in 1975, the Service’s original sponsors have been joined by additional UN agencies, funds and programmes, private foundations, and several donor country governments. UN-NGLS is located in the UN headquarters in New York and in Palais des Nations in Geneva. == Objectives and Structure == The NGLS facilitates civil society participation in intergovernmental policy deliberations at the UN and monitors and reports on ongoing developments in the UN and summarizes information. The Service assists UN bodies and agencies in the implementation of their civil society strategies and helps address gaps and fill needs as they arise on the UN System-civil society interface. In 2004, the Cardoso Report (the Report of the UN Secretary-General’s Panel of Eminent Persons on UN-civil society relations (We the Peoples: Civil Society, the UN and Global Governance) identified NGLS as a key player to reposition the UN in addressing challenges related to the need for more participatory and coalition-based forms of global governance.〔The Secretary-General's Panel of Eminent Persons on Civil Society and UN Relationships, Final Report (A/58/817), 2004, p. 62.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「United Nations Non-Governmental Liaison Service」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
