[]

Date: 2022-10 

The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the United Nations.

The UN General Assembly is an opportunity for the world to come together to address the most pressing global challenges facing us today.

At the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA 77), the United States will reinforce the President’s commitment to multilateral action by engaging actively across the full spectrum of UNGA events and activities.

UNGA 77 opened September 13, 2022, with High-Level Week taking place September 19-23 in New York.

Policy Priorities

The United States believes that the United Nations provides a vital platform that can help address some of the most pressing and shared challenges that affect all of us, from global food security to global health crises.

We are committed to continuing to work with and through the United Nations system to find solutions to these challenges.

The United States also recognizes that, in this moment of heightened geopolitical tensions, we all have a role to play in helping shape a future United Nations that can deliver on its mandate and remain a central and effective problem-solving institution.

With that in mind, the United States is focused on three key policy priorities for the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly: Combating Food Insecurity, Advancing Global Health and Global Health Security, and Upholding the UN Charter and Shaping the UN’s Future.
