Civil society
The ICN2 Civil Society Organizations Liaison Group was set up to coordinate inputs from civil society and to serve as main interlocutor of the two agencies in arranging the engagement of civil society in the ICN2 process.
The purpose of the ICN2 CS Liaison Group was to facilitate efficient and effective communication between a large group of interested parties currently working together. The group members were not responsible to make decisions themselves, but to facilitate communication and work to move the process forward with a positive and propositional style that aimed to focus on positive engagement, despite the challenges.
