This session will take place on Monday, 23 February 2009 in Conference Room 5 in the United Nations Secretariat Buidling, from 11:45 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The purpose of this informal briefing is not only to inform new members about the functioning of the Commission procedures, but also to offer a first opportunity for networking with other Commission participants.
