Τhe Centre for European Constitutional Law (CECL) has been officially granted Consultative Status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).

This recognition represents a significant milestone in CECL’s ongoing commitment to advancing human rights, democratic governance and the rule of law at both European and international levels.

With this status, CECL is now formally integrated into the consultative framework of the United Nations, enabling us to:

  • Designate official representatives to the UN Headquarters in New York and Offices in Geneva and Vienna
  • Participate in United Nations conferences, events, and public sessions of ECOSOC, the Human Rights Council, and—under certain conditions—the General Assembly and other United Nations intergovernmental bodies
  • Submit written and oral statements relevant to ECOSOC’s work
  • Engage in consultations and contribute expert analysis, research, and policy recommendations upon request
  • Access United Nations press documentation services, libraries, and facilities for meetings and informal discussions

This consultative relationship strengthens our ability to contribute to global policy discourse and collaborate with key international actors in areas where CECL has developed recognized expertise.
