Regional Consultation of the CSOs
The IPC Regional Process participates in the Steering Committee decided by CSOs, which is responsible to organize independently at the regional level the Regional Consultation of Civil Society Organizations.
These consultations are organized before the FAO Regional Conferences to work on a shared and common declaration to be read during the Conferences.
The CSOs participate as observers to the FAO Regional Conferences. The participants are decided among the different CSOs (IPC and non IPC organizations) present at the Consultation.
