Dear Colleagues and Friends,

Attached to this message you will find the just-released report of the UN 
Secretary-General "In Larger Freedom: Towards Security, Development and 
Human Rights for All" (A/59/2005).

The report represents the Secretary-General's contribution to the 
Millennium Summit+5 that will take place from 14-16 September 2005.  As 
part of the preparatory process, the General Assembly will hold Hearings 
with Civil Society, NGOs and the Private Sector from 24-25 June 2005.

NGLS, in cooperation with UN and NGO colleagues, is playing a central role 
on the Civil Society/NGO track of the preparatory process and would like to 
invite you to send your comments, observations and viewpoints on the 
Secretary-General's Report and the issues at stake when the World's Heads 
of States meet at the Summit in September.  Should there be sufficient 
inputs from you, NGLS will compile and produce a report for distribution at 
the June 'Hearings' and for posting on our website.

For further background reading, the Report of the High-level Panel on 
Threats, Challenges and Change (<http://www.un.org/secureworld/report.pdf>A 
more Secure World: Our Shared Responsibility),  and the Report of the Panel 
of Eminent Persons on United Nations–Civil Society Relations, 
(<http://www.un-ngls.org/Final%20report%20-%20HLP.doc>We the peoples: civil 
society, the United Nations and global governance).
The cut-off date for your inputs is 30 April.  Please keep your 
commentaries brief and to the point and send them to Ms. Anne Kawuki at the 
following email address: anne.kawuki at unctad.org.   And please mark your 
subject box "commentaries".

We hope that many of you will want to use this opportunity to make a 
contribution to the preparatory process for the Millennium Summit+5.

With best wishes,

Tony Hill
UN-NGLS Coordinator
