\n\tOn July 8, the second training session of the project \u201cSupporting the Enhancement of Azerbaijani NGOs\u2019 Representation at the UN,\u201d implemented by the International Eurasia Press Fund (IEPF) with the support of the Agency for State Support to Non-Governmental Organizations of the Republic of Azerbaijan, was held in Baku.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe session took place at IEPF\u2019s head office and brought together 23 representatives from various local NGOs. Over the course of nearly three hours, human rights expert and trainer Sahib Mammadov delivered an engaging presentation titled \u201cAn Overview of the International Human Rights System.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tThe aim of the project is clear and ambitious: to strengthen the voice of Azerbaijani civil society on the international stage. By helping local NGOs understand the inner workings of the United Nations \u2014 particularly its treaty bodies and charter-based mechanisms \u2014 the project also supports their path toward obtaining consultative status with the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). Participants are being trained to prepare international reports across different thematic areas and to navigate the procedures that shape global advocacy.<\/p>\n
\n\tIn total, 12 sessions are planned, running until the end of August. At the conclusion of the program, those who complete the full course will be awarded certificates recognizing their participation and progress.<\/p>\n
\n\tWith this initiative, Azerbaijani NGOs are taking meaningful steps toward becoming more active, informed, and visible in the international arena \u2014 where their perspectives and contributions are needed more than ever.<\/p>\n
