All CSOs recognized by the OAS have the right to attend meetings of the General Assembly, the Inter-American Council for Integral Development (CIDI), and other specific Conferences of the OAS. They also have the right to present and receive written documents and contribute to the elaboration of the agenda, among other things.
Participation of CSOs in the activities of the OAS was formally regulated in 1999. To apply for registration, CSOs must send a letter to the OAS General Secretariat fulfilling certain requirements.
