The final confirmation of PCN CONSULTATIVE STATUS WITH THE UN

On August 1st, 2013, The Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) formally conveys its letter confirming the grant of a Special Consultative Status to Peace Corps of Nigeria. This followed the adoption of the recommendation of the UN Committee on Non Governmental Organizations (NGOs) at its Substantive Session in July 2013 at the UN Headquarters in New York.

Consultative Status for an organization enables it to actively engage with ECOSOC and its subsidiary bodies, as well as with the United Nations Secretariat, programmes, funds and agencies in a number of ways.
