The 80th session of the General Assembly will open on September 9!
The final meeting of the 79th session of the General Assembly will be held on Tuesday, chaired by Philémon Yang, who will transfer power to the President of the 80th General Assembly, Annalena Baerbock, at the meeting.
The main activities of the new session are expected to be the high-level week public policy debates held from September 23 to 27 and September 29, during which 195 delegations are expected to speak.
The 80th General Assembly is being convened against the backdrop of a serious financial crisis, as several countries have defaulted on their dues, causing the United Nations to face a budget deficit, with the largest donor country, the United States, owing about 3 billion dollars.
As part of the reform of the United Nations for its 80th anniversary, it is being discussed that the headquarters of UN agencies such as the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women) may be moved from New York to Nairobi by 2026, aiming to reduce operating costs.
