All negotiations under the United Nations system, regardless of scope or space, share a few characteristics. They are, for the most part, participatory spaces in which any country can get involved and therefore offer an opportunity for any delegation to voice the position of the government they represent. They are also spaces in which the main stakeholders are governments, since the expected result is that commitments are assumed and translated into policies and actions at the national levels. Lastly, they are spaces in which the participation of governments depends heavily on the limited number of representatives that are part of their delegation and who, to a large extent, are directly responsible for the performance and presence of their country in each conference.

Toutes les négociations menées dans le cadre du système des Nations Unies, quelle que soit leur portée ou leur espace, partagent un certain nombre de caractéristiques. Ce sont, pour la plupart, des espaces participatifs dans lesquels n'importe quel pays peut s'impliquer et offrent donc une opportunité à toute délégation de mettre sur la table la position du gouvernement qu'elle représente. Ce sont aussi des espaces dans lesquels les principaux acteurs sont les gouvernements, puisque le résultat attendu est que des engagements sont pris qui se traduisent par des politiques et des actions au niveau national. Enfin, ce sont des espaces dans lesquels la participation des gouvernements dépend fortement du nombre limité de représentants qui font partie de leur délégation et qui, dans une large mesure, sont directement responsables de la performance et de la présence de leur pays à chaque conférence.
