How would civil society benefit from a Parliamentary Assembly?

A Parliamentary Assembly should provide efficient and innovative means of includingcivil society groups in its work. For instance this could be done through public hearings of the assembly’s committees or co-option of temporary non-voting advisory members at the committee level. In addition, civil society groups can engage with assembly delegates individually. These opportunities would be complementary to existing forms of participation in the United Nations system.
