Approved organisations

 
Close cooperation with non-governmental organisations interested in the activities of the CDNI is an asset in favour of the smooth running of the Conference of the Contracting Parties (CCP). The approval of NGOs enables them to take an active part in the work being carried out. They are also able to submit to the CCP – through the Secretariat – information and proposals they consider appropriate, take part in the hearings of the profession organised every two years, and ask to participate in the CDNI/G Working Group. It should be noted that these organisations are representative at the international level.
