The network’s operation is run by the International Secretariat, based in the Third World Institute, Montevideo, Uruguay. The secretariat keeps the communication among members flowing and compiles the national reports by the members to bring them to the attention of the United Nations and otherwise facilitates the members' efforts to make their governments and the multilateral system accountable. |
