Registration of Observers

Observers designated to attend the meetings, including international organizations, are requested to forward their names, official titles and addresses by e-mail to [email protected] and a recent passport-size photograph. Online pre-registration is mandatory. The information will be used to prepare the badges providing access to the meeting places and for the first draft of the Provisional List of Participants. Participants should provide accurate contact details.

For the Ninth meeting of the Governing Body of the International Treaty, the deadline is July 29.

Photo Requirements

The photo must be in colour, featuring a frontal view of a head and shoulders; it must have a light or neutral background and show very little of the background above and on either side of the head (no hats, sunglasses, or accessories that obscure deface). The photo must be in digital JPEG format and should have a width-to-height ratio of approximately 3:4. In other words, a photo 2 cm wide should be approximately 2.5 cm high.

If any support is required for the registration, the Secretariat can be contacted by phone at +39 06 57056413 or via e-mail at [email protected].

First-time Observers

Bodies or agencies requesting to attend a session of the Governing Body for the first time need to provide to the Secretariat of the International Treaty a brief description of their organization, including the organization’s full name and contact details, its main objectives and activities, indicating the organization’s qualification in fields relating to the subject-matter of the International Treaty. This description should not be longer than five hundred words and should be sent to [email protected].

Information on travel, visa, hotel, side-events, documents, and other logistic issues is available in the Information Note for participants.
