CSO registration is now closed.
Because the Spring Meetings will be mainly virtual, CSO badges will not be issued and CSOs should not travel to Washington, D.C.
As in previous years, the World Bank Group and IMF will host the Civial Society Policy Forum (CSPF) as part of the 2022 Spring Meetings. The CSPF is an opportunity for Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) to share their views and perspectives in facilitated dialogues with Bank and Fund staff, other CSOs, and stakeholders. The CSPF will be held from April 4 to April 15, 2022.
All CSO representatives must recieve accreditation to participate in the CSPF and any other Spring Meetings events. Accreditation is not transferrable. CSOs include non-governmental organizations, community groups, labor unions, indigenous people’s movements, faith-based organizations, professional associations, foundations, think tanks, charitable organizations, and other not-for-profit organizations. All other participants - such as representatives from the private sector, academia or governmental bodies - must apply for accreditation as a Guest or other relevant registration category.
