Multilateral Conferences & Diplomacy
A Glossary of Terms for UN Delegates
The glossary, available in English and in French,
targets primarily the newly accredited multilateral
delegate who is unfamiliar with the wide array of
UN-related terms and abbreviations, although it will
no doubt be of equal assistance to other delegates,
including scientific and technical experts from capitals,
staff of the United Nations and other intergovernmental
organizations, and representatives from non-governmental
organizations.
Over 700 definitions of terms, abbreviations and
acronyms frequently heard at United Nations conferences.

of Terms for UN Delegates can be purchased from:

Documentation
This CD-ROM is produced by the Multilateral Diplomacy
and International Affairs Management Programme of
the United Nations Institute for Training and Research
(UNITAR), in collaboration with the United Nations
Dag Hammarskjöld Library at New York, the Library
of the United Nations Office at Geneva (UNOG) and
the UNOG Conference Services.
This interactive tool aims at acquainting users with
the collections and services of the UN Libraries and
at providing information about the Organization and
the use of UN documentary collections and databases.
It also seeks to deepen and update the trainees' understanding
of the interrelationship between the structure and
activities of the UN System and its documentation,
and to develop and enhance their skills in the retrieval
of information and the effective use of the various
reference instruments and modern facilities available
at the UN.
