G3ict & the United Nations System

G3ict is an independent nonprofit, non-governmental organization (NGO) that has held consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) since 2017 and is accredited as a civil society organization to the Conference of States Parties (COSP) to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). It also participates in the Civil Society Steering Committee that informs COSP agendas.

G3ict contributes to global digital accessibility initiatives through its membership in the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), engaging across ITU‑T, ITU‑D, and ITU‑R. Learn more about the work of the G3ict Delegation to the ITU.

G3ict collaborates with a broad range of United Nations system entities on ICT accessibility, including alignment with the UN Disability Inclusion Strategy (UNDIS), the UN’s internal framework for strengthening disability inclusion across its policies and operations. These collaborations span Specialized Agencies (ILO, UNESCO, WHO, WIPO, World Bank), Funds and Programmes (UNDP, UN‑Habitat, UNICEF), Research and Training Institutes (UNITAR), Departments and Offices (DESA, OHCHR, ODET, OICT), and Regional Commissions (ESCAP, ECLAC/CEPAL). G3ict also engages with United Nations–supported multistakeholder initiatives such as the Global Compact. Together, these partnerships advance shared efforts to strengthen digital inclusion and accessibility worldwide.
