The brown bag meeting seeks to continue the productive informal dialogue between the Executive Secretary and accredited observers to the Minamata Convention last year at COP-4 held in Bali. The meeting is an opportunity to exchange information, which will include updates from the Secretariat on the COP5 preparations and learn more about the work stakeholders are doing on the many aspects of the Convention and in its implementation that could be relevant to COP5.

The meeting is open to Minamata Convention accredited observers. For any inquiries about the event, please contact Richard Gutierrez, richard.gutierrez [at] un.org with copy to MEA-MinamataSecretariat [at] un.org and shariful.islam1 [at] un.org.
