‘’As a result of the current COVID-19-related restrictions, side-events cannot take place inside the Palais des Nations during the 46th regular session of the Human Rights Council (22 February–19 March 2021). For the sole purpose of information-sharing, external events that would be organized by NGOs in consultative status with ECOSOC in parallel to the session could be listed on the OHCHR civil society webpage (https://www.ohchr.org/EN/Issues/CivicSpace/Pages/ProtectingCivicSpace.aspx). In such cases, the NGOs should contact the Civil Society Team of OHCHR at hrcngo@ohchr.org – providing the details of their event (title, date, time, on-line link, and contact person). Please note that such NGO events will not be considered as official Human Rights Council events, and are held on the sole responsibility of the organizing NGOs, with the Secretariat bearing no responsibility whatsoever.’’
