I am using the IEEEtran.bst
file for my bibliography (as follows):
\bibliographystyle{IEEEtran}
\bibliography{IEEEabrv,biblio}
and it works as desired in all but one case. I have one entry where the 'author' is "World Health Organization and others", which gets abbreviated as "W. H. Organization et al.". Obviously, this is not what I want.
Is there a way I can use IEEEabrv
, but make an exception for this one entry?
Please note that I am obliged to use this style (not natbib or anything else) due to the conference submission guidelines.

Your problem is not caused by
IEEEabrv.bib
, which simply contains the abbreviated names of IEEE journals; it is rather caused by the styleIEEEtran.bst
, which is programmed to abbreviate author names.According to this, maybe you could write your author as
author = {{\relax World Health Organization} and others}
