<p><a href="https://www.eurao.org/en/node/933" target="_blank"><img alt="UN/DESA" src="https://eurobureauqsl.org/images/undesa.png" style="FLOAT:left;MARGIN:0px 10px 0px 0px" title="UN/DESA" width="210"></a> Last May, the <strong>Committee on Non-Governmental Organizations</strong> recommended <em>special consultative status</em> with the <strong>Economic and Social Council</strong> (ECOSOC) of the <strong>United Nations</strong> to <strong><acronym title="European Radio Amateurs&#39; Organization">EURAO</acronym></strong>.</p>

<p>In July, at its <strong>Coordination and Management Meeting</strong>, <acronym title="Economic and Social Council">ECOSOC</acronym> endorsed this recommendation, communicating its final decision in early August.</p>

<p><strong>EURAO</strong> started the application process four years ago, in 2014, having to provide a lot of information about its  organisation: legal aspects, finances, structure, membership, tasks done, etc.</p>

<p>With this recognition, <strong>EURAO</strong> can be heard in the subsidiary bodies of the UN and even participate in its meetings in person, although its initial intention is just to make itself available to them (QRV) and collect information.</p>

<p>Amateur radio is of great help in developing countries, emergency communications, health, education, etc. Some of <strong>EURAO</strong> members carry out an outstanding work in this sense: with children, with indigenous communities, with migrants, etc.</p>

<p><a href="http://csonet.org/index.php?menu=134" target="_blank"><img alt="Working with ECOSOC" src="https://eurobureauqsl.org/images/ECOSOC_Brochure.jpg" style="FLOAT:right;MARGIN:5px 0px 5px 10px" title="Working with ECOSOC" width="160"></a> To know more about benefits of the consultative status, there is this interesting booklet, in several languages, entitled &quot;Working with ECOSOC&quot;.</p>

<p>On the <a href="https://www.eurobureauqsl.org/docs/075_EURAO.pdf" target="_blank">personalized confirmation letter</a>, you can also find a short list of privileges and obligations that organizations with consultative status have to take into account.</p>

<p>This grant is really a great honor for <strong>EURAO</strong>, as well as a responsibility before the global radio amateurs community.</p></div>
