1
Par ses Résolutions A/RES/56/183, A/RES/57/238 et A/RES/59/220, l'Assemblée générale
des Nations Unies a encouragé la contribution effective et la participation active de tous les organes
compétents des Nations Unies et en particulier du Groupe d'étude sur les TIC, et a encouragé les
autres organisations intergouvernementales, notamment les institutions internationales et régionales
ainsi que les organisations non gouvernementales, la société civile et le secteur privé à contribuer et
à participer activement au processus intergouvernemental préparatoire du Sommet et au Sommet
proprement dit.
2
Conformément aux Dispositions relatives à l'accréditation, les demandes d'accréditation
doivent être adressées par courrier électronique ou par télécopie au Secrétariat exécutif, au moins
six semaines avant le début de chaque réunion du Comité de préparation. Avec le concours du
Service de liaison non gouvernemental des Nations Unies, le Secrétariat exécutif est chargé, d'une
part, d'évaluer l'adéquation entre les activités des demandeurs et le thème du Sommet sur la base des
informations de fond fournies et de l'engagement des demandeurs pour ce qui est des grandes
questions associées à la société de l'information et, d'autre part, de formuler des recommandations
au Comité de préparation pour orienter sa décision quant à l'accréditation des ONG, des organismes
de la société civile et des entités du secteur privé qui sont jugés compétents et dont les activités sont
liées au thème du Sommet. Le Secrétariat exécutif doit diffuser aux Etats Membres la liste des
institutions recommandées aux fins d'accréditation deux semaines avant le début de chaque réunion.

Le Secrétariat exécutif a évalué les demandes d'accréditation dûment remplies qu'il a reçues
entre le 7 janvier 2005 et le 8 août 2005 (le 6 janvier 2005 était le dernier délai pour l'envoi des
