UNTP Meetings

UNTP meetings are organised into three tiers with different audiences and purposes. Minutes of all meetings are public. See the governance overview for details on observer and contributor roles.

General Update Meetings

Open to anyone. The monthly general update meetings are intended for anyone interested in staying informed about UNTP developments — whether you are evaluating UNTP for your organisation, tracking progress as an observer, or simply curious. No registration or commitment is required.

Working Group Meetings

Open to all, intended for active contributors. The four specialist working groups are where the UNTP specifications are developed and maintained. Anyone may attend, but these meetings are designed for participants who want to engage deeply with the specification content and potentially contribute changes. Contributing participants must be registered UN experts.
