Concept note


For panel discussions the online inscription for the lists of speakers opens on Monday, 10 June at 4 p.m., and closes 24 hours before the meeting in which the respective panel is scheduled to start. In exceptional cases, after the online inscription has closed, delegations may still inscribe or withdraw by either approaching the list of speakers desk in room XX or sending an email to ohchr-hrclistofspeakers@un.org.

NHRIs and NGOS are also requested to inscribe online. Speakers intending to participate in person are requested to confirm their participation at ohchr-ngoconfirmation@un.org.

Speaking time is 1.5 minutes for all. Please also refer to announcements made in Room XX and through Sched and SMS alert.

The list of speakers for each panel discussion is generated by the system based on the indicated priority and the time of inscription, thus allowing a broader representation of delegations participating in panel discussions over the course of the session. Please refer to the guidance note on the Extranet for further details.

The lists of speakers will be made available on the Extranet the day before the debate or dialogue is scheduled to start and will be updated live.
