Multilateral cooperation 50 | Of particular importance was the creation of the Global Governance Group (3G), which deals with the work of the G20 and advocates greater consultation by the G20 with the rest of the UN membership as well as fair and equal treatment of all states. Also in the Security Council, Liechtenstein is involved primarily in the abovementioned thematic areas and takes part regularly in relevant activities. The focus is on the agendas of women, peace and security; children and armed conflict; protection of civilian populations; the rule of law in general; and ICC-related issues in particular. For the foreseeable future, Liechtenstein has no intention to become a member of the Security Council. Liechtenstein was a member of the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) in 2008 and was involved primarily in humanitarian matters and topics relevant to the financial centre. In the ECOSOC functional commissions, substantive participation focuses on the work of the Commission on Crime Prevention and Criminal Justice (CCPCJ, Vienna) and the Commission on the Status of Women. Liechtenstein has so far never served as a member of any of the functional commissions, but such participation is under consideration. Similarly, a seat on the Executive Board of UN Women is envisaged. As a state party to the UN Convention on Prohibitions or Restrictions on the Use of Certain Conventional Weapons Which May Be Deemed to Be Excessively Injurious or to Have Indiscriminate Effects, Liechtenstein supports efforts to further strengthen the protection of the civilian population in conflict situations and thus international humanitarian law. Liechtenstein pursues a similar goal by participating in a process launched by the ICRC to improve mechanisms for monitoring compliance with the Geneva Conventions.
