I just noticed that this year's UN/DPI NGO Conference is now going on. It started yesterday and continues through Friday. It can even be watched via webcast. I thought some might find it of interest to see what sort of events these were as WT Society representatives apparently attended some of these back when it had an associated status with the DPI. The website and links to the webcast is at:
