The workshop will bring together experts in UN advocacy and participants from unrepresented nations, in order to facilitate knowledge exchange between participants, and strengthen advocacy at the UN. The workshop will cover the following topics: access to ECOSOC status; building allies and alliances; navigating and targeting UN specific mechanisms. Participants will be encouraged to create concrete ‘asks’ and recommendations, identify targets within the UN mechanisms, prepare briefing materials and develop media/social media strategies.
