UN General Assembly
What is UNGA?
The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) is the UN’s main policy-making convention. The 79th session will be held during the month of September 2024 in New York. With 193 Member States, UNGA 79 serves as a unique forum for discussing a wide range of international issues under the United Nations Charter.
UNGA is not just about world leaders. It’s also a platform for the public – and public figures. In 2024, actor Don Cheadle and writer Amy Webb will join the UN and advocate for climate change and innovation.

The SDGs “wheel” represents the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Wearing an official UNDP SDGs lapel pin is a meaningful way to show your support for the SDGs year-round. Gear up for UNGA 79 and discover our authentic SDGs Lapel Pin Collection.
UNGA and SDGs
