MIAMI & NEW YORK – The 3rd Annual Power of Collaboration Summit held at the United Nations in New York will serve to launch the IMPACT Leadership 21 500, a joint project with the Foundation for Support of the United Nations (FSUN), Inter Press Service (IPS) and iCrowdNewswire to provide world-class press release distribution services to non-governmental organizations (NGOs), Civil Society and Non Profit organizations.
“Awareness, dialog, visibility and support are keys to successful advocacy. The IMPACT Leadership 21 500 initiative is designed to provide NGOs and Civil Society organizations with world-class communications tools necessary to achieve their goals,” said Hector Botero, President of iCrowdNewswire. “Our goal is to recruit 500 organizations from all regions worldwide regardless of cause, size or financial resources to use our world-class corporate communications tools to deliver their message, advocate for their cause, create awareness, garner support and promote dialog. We are building the Civil Society news hub, providing technology tools that enable communications and leveling the playing field for dialog and inclusion in the global narrative.”
The United Nations NGO Branch, Office for ECOSOC Support and Coordination, supports the work of 4,186 NGOs in active consultative status with (ECOSOC). In addition, the integrated Civil Society Organizations (ICSO) System, developed by the Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA), of the United Nations Department of Social and Economic Affairs, NGO Branch coordinates some 24,000 registered entities. Worldwide there are in excess of 40,000 international NGOs and millions of national NGOs and non-profit organizations.
“NGOs and Civil Society organizations all have one thing in common: regardless of cause, geographical focus or financial ability, every cause depends on communications to effectively advocate and deliver their message,” said Janet Salazar, Founder, IMPACT Leadership 21. “Our partnership with iCrowdNewswire, a tier-one press release distribution service, will enable us to substantially advance the goals of hundreds of organizations from around the globe.”
iCrowdNewswire has deployed an IMPACT Leadership 21-branded software-as-a-service (SaaS) platform that requires an elementary computer knowledge and less than five minutes from sign up to check out to distribute a press release. Civil society distribution is done using a comprehensive distribution platform that includes guaranteed posting on hundreds of web sites, social media channels, databases, RSS feeds, search engines and thousands of global news editors. Distribution is done in partnership with Inter Press Service (IPS), a not-for-profit news agency and cooperative of journalists that has general NGO consultative status with ECOSOC.
