Multi-Stakeholder Hearing - Civil Society Engagement Brief

The Multi-Stakeholder Hearing (MSH) taking place on April 23rd will be the direct result of the hard work of the Multi-Stakeholder Task Force. It will feed into the HLM process with a summary document highlighting the main advocacy asks of civil society towards the HLM Political Declaration.

The MSH will be transmitted live on UN Web TV and the GNP+ Facebook page. There will be a moderated chat in the feed. It is encouraged for civil society to share their thoughts and ask questions in the chat. While these comments and/or questions will not be shared directly in the MSH, they will be collected and used as supplemental information in the development of the Civil Society Declaration.

We encourage civil society to speak up and participate online and socials using the hashtags #WeAreHLM and #PressureON so others can follow throughout the MSH and HLM process.
