Description
WCRF International and World Obesity Federation, supported by NCD Alliance, welcome proposals in the Director-General’s Report on Non-State Actor involvement in WHO’s governing body meetings that address the challenges of NSAs engagement.
To achieve more meaningful engagement of NSAs, we call on WHO & Member States to:
• Develop agendas for informal meetings in collaboration with NSAs, providing enough time to input, and further incentives for Member States to participate
• Ensure that informal discussions do not replace comprehensive online consultations on key documents
• Reinstate official side events as a valuable platform to engage Member States around key topics, WHO technical teams and other NSAs.
