Due to an overwhelming demand for side events, organisers will now be notified of the approval status, as well as the scheduled date, time and location of their proposed side event by 15 June 2015.

We ask for your kind understanding that until June 15, the Financing for Development Office cannot respond to any requests for preliminary information about the status of side events.

Please be assured that FfDO, ECA and the Government of Ethiopia are extending all possible efforts to accommodate all side events.
