2023 Management Segment

  • Chambers

What?

In accordance with General Assembly resolution 72/305, “the meetings of the management segment will, in principle, last no more than two days, twice per cycle”. At the 2023 session, the Management Segment meetings are scheduled to take place on 7 and 8 June, and 25 and 26 July 2023, respectively. The Council will also hold elections to fill vacancies in its subsidiary and related bodies at dedicated management meetings on 5 April 2023.

General Assembly resolution 75/290 A stated that “[t]he management segment of the Economic and Social Council will continue to discharge the functions provided for in General Assembly resolution 72/305.” The resolution has furthermore established the following changes to the Management Segment:

  • The Economic and Social Council is to “hold a discussion to integrate the key messages from the subsidiary bodies of the Council and the United Nations system on the main theme, develop action-oriented recommendations for follow-up and feed into the high-level political forum on sustainable development” during the Management Segment in June. This discussion “will be informed by the existing report of the Secretary-General synthesizing the inputs of the functional commissions of the Council and other intergovernmental bodies and forums to the thematic review of the high-level political forum.”
  • “The Secretary-General’s annual overview report of the United Nations Chief Executives Board for Coordination will be presented by the Secretariat at the Management Segment of the Economic and Social Council”.
  • The one-day meeting on the transition from relief to development “will also consider the existing agenda items of the Council on issues related to the Ad Hoc Advisory Group on Haiti, South Sudan, the Sahel region and any country-specific item under the sub-item on African countries emerging from conflict for in-depth discussion to guide coordinated support at the country level”. These agenda items were previously solely considered at the Management Segment. 

Who?

Participants at the Management Segment are Member States, representatives of the Council’s functional commissions and expert bodies, regional commissions and United Nations agencies, funds and programmes.

How?

The programme of the Management Segment meetings is structured around action that ECOSOC is expected to take on economic, social, environmental, health and related matters, including by recommendation of its subsidiary and related bodies.
