The most relevant changes have concerned the specification of the condition for an NGO to be granted consultative status, the treatment of national NGOs and the adoption of rules for NGOs’ participation in international conferences convened by the UN (E/RES/96/31 part I, para. 5 and part VII). 10 ECOSOC resolutions provide for a differentiated status for NGOs as a function of their involvement in the work of the Council. According to Resolution 96/31, NGOs and intergovernmental organizations 25 their status cannot be equated to ‘participation without vote’ which is reserved for member states which do not have a seat in the ECOSOC;11 in short, since any possibility for NGOs to engage in negotiating functions is excluded, they are more correctly referred to as observers than as participants.
See E/RES/96/31, supra at note 7, paras 28 to 32. 2, supra at note 8. The principle is restated in the subsequent revisions of the arrangements for NGO participation. See for instance paras 18 and 19, E/RES/96/31, supra at note 8. 12 See J. Aston (2001), ‘The United Nations Committee on Non-Governmental Organisations: guarding the entrance of a politically divided house’, European Journal of International Law, 12(5), 943–62. 26 NGOs and intergovernmental organizations have provided the political ground and the advocacy tools for the mobilization of a growing global public opinion.
66 The dilemma is in the first place a challenge for the intergovernmental process: since any engagement with civil society has an ‘opportunity cost’, the process is strengthened only if the added value of participation exceeds the cost. As a consequence, there is a growing IGO interest in adopting the necessary measures to make sure that the ‘appropriate’ actors are involved. But overcrowding is equally a concern for NGOs, since more participants imply less participation. 68 On the other hand, a higher degree of regulation is also seen as the necessary response to the drawbacks of the informal patterns of relationship so far developed.
