New York: Representatives to ECOSOC  

Catherine Moore Coordinator	Loretta James
The United Nation's crowded agenda at its headquarters in New York necessitates year-long coverage by IFUW's representatives, who follow the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) and the Committee on the Status of Women (CSW). Representatives share common experiences at weekly briefings, conferences, consultations and through membership in the NGO Committee on the Status of Women. Individually we follow our own particular interests consistent with IFUW's special concerns. Working relationships with UN staff and with other NGOs develop mainly through participation in NGO Committee where collaborative work is generally accomplished.
