UNCTAD today launches its new website, featuring information about the organization as well as major events in the field of trade and development. The site includes a press page where e-briefs, press releases and notes to correspondents are available, together with the highlights of the week and a monthly media calendar.
The main sections of the website, including the digital library and online statistics, appear in English, French and Spanish. Official documents are also available in Arabic, Chinese and Russian. New sitemaps and web trailers facilitate the navigation process, and there is a new search facility to handle advanced queries.
Towards the end of the year, a registered-users-only newsroom will allow journalists to access embargoed press releases and documents prior to the launch of the main UNCTAD reports. Further information will be forthcoming.
