About

Since its inception in 2016, UNGA Guide has served as your go-to resource for navigating both official and unofficial events at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA). As we approach UNGA 79 – starting on 10 September 2024 – we’re excited to be your guide to discovering events and planning your ultimate UNGA experience. The UN continues to play a central role in facilitating global cooperation and solidarity and it’s more important now than ever to link the international community together through UNGA activities.

UNGA 79 is happening in New York City in September with an exciting lineup of in-person, hybrid and virtual events. Whether you’re on the ground or tuning in from afar, our guide connects you to hundreds of opportunities to participate and engage with global conversations throughout September. Our guide is extensive but not comprehensive, so we encourage you to submit your events here or contact us to update an existing event.

WHAT IS UNGA?

Every September, the United Nations General Assembly gathers the world’s leaders and advocates to address, discuss, and debate the most pressing global issues from public health to climate change to human rights. This annual event is paramount for driving progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals and ensuring a more equitable future for all.
