The seventy-seventh session of the General Assembly opens on 13 September under the theme, “A watershed moment: transformative solutions to interlocking challenges.”
The theme stems from the recognition that the world is at a critical moment in the history of the United Nations – and so too are the Sustainable Development Goals due to complex and interconnected crises, including the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, humanitarian challenges of unprecedented nature, a tipping point in climate change as well as growing concerns about threats to the global economy.
Finding joint solutions to these crises and building a more sustainable and resilient world for all and for the generations to come will be a key focus of deliberations. It is high time for the world to come together around solutions for sustainable development and accelerate the implementation of Sustainable Development Goals.
