At the request of the Office of the President of the General Assembly, UN-NGLS facilitated a process to identify stakeholders wishing to speak at the meeting. UN-NGLS facilitated a Stakeholder Selection Committee to review the applications for the speaking roles and create a regionally and gender balanced shortlist of candidates for the President of the General Assembly to consider.
