FOFSTOCK to Apply to the UN for Consultative Status!
By Samantha Blackwell, FOFSTOCK
Our application for Consultative Status at the United Nations!
FOFSTOCK has started the application process to attain Consultative Status at the United Nations and advocate for musicians and small time indie organizations who currently have little or no say in the global music sphere. Status could actually be achieved this year but typically takes several years. Until then IAIJ will advocate for these groups via in-depth reports on the issues that matter and bring them onto the world stage in the meantime.
Says Maurice Ali, CEO of FOFSTOCK:
“FOFSTOCK is one of the few music artist and indi-label advocacy groups around. With a not-for-profit purchasing a for-profit record label, this gives many dimensions for advocacy within this area. Getting Consultative Status at the United Nations would now have a dedicated NGO to advocate on behalf of musicians and indie organizations. The world needs a true grass roots NGO to fight for musician rights in a world that constantly devalues them. FOFSTOCK exists to advocate for musicians and the indie music industry that is sorely lacking at the international world stage!”
