NGOs and good governance: a utopian claim?

Since the establishment of the Ottawa Treaty, the role of NGOs in global governance developed significantly, particularly with regard to the drawing up and monitoring of international regulations and norms.

Today, NGOs and global governance is a topic of controversy between those who are supporting a more extensive and authoritative role of NGOs in global governance, and those who decry the NGOs lack of expertise and means to apply international law.

The International Conference on the Role of NGOs in Global Governance will discuss all these issues with the presence of internationally-reputed figures from the political, economic and humanitarian spheres. Mr Brahimi Lakhdar, Mr Pascal Boniface, and Mr Henri Rouillé D’Orfeuil are among the participants who are going to debate on the rising influence of NGOs in international development and cooperation.
