This year, there were 195 speakers. This included speeches from three permanent observers \u2013 Palestine, the Holy See and the EU \u2013 as well as speeches from the UN secretary- general and the president of the General Assembly, who delivered a closing speech. <\/p>\n<p>The order of speakers is generally determined by factors that include geography and the position of the speaker. Because of the continuing war, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was granted special dispensation by a vote to address the General Assembly via a pre-recorded video. The General Assembly is the pre-eminent organ of the UN where all member states enjoy equal rights and votes. <\/p>\n<p>The gender of the speakers were 173 men and 22 women. Women\u2019s voices at the General Assembly are typically few. <\/p>\n<p>This time around, the number was less than half, only nine of whom were heads of state or government, an improvement from last year when only 18 women spoke. <\/p>\n<p>The president of last year\u2019s General Assembly convened the first UNGA platform of women leaders, with the aim to address the gap. <\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, participants said it could take anywhere between 130 and 300 years to achieve gender parity. <\/p>\n<p>High-level meetings of the 77th Session included: <\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-d0124c0d1780c366569a614b692fcc28\">Transforming Education Summit: Sept 16,17 and 19 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Amid an education crisis, the UN secretary-general convened the Transforming Education Summit to mobilise solidarity and solutions to recover pandemic-related learning losses, reimagine education for the future and reignite global efforts to deliver education-related Sustainable Development Goals. <\/p>\n<p>World leaders joined \u201cLeaders Day\u201d discussions, a major highlight of the General Assembly\u2019s 77th session.<\/p>\n<p>The event was preceded by a two- day segment focused on youth and solutions to scale up global support and action. <\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-43f399ff46f3013de6e5b18f3ae6effb\">SDG Moment: Sept 19 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) moment serves to place an annual spotlight on the Sustainable Development Goals that took place in the beginning of the UN General Assembly High-Level Week. It was held as the world faces its deepest cost-of-living crisis that carries huge implications for the advancement of the SDGs, especially in developing countries. <\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-ec1a34f6207d47ae18bae3dd30117350\">Platform for Women Leaders: Sept 20 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The General Assembly convened female heads of state and government for an event titled the \u201cUNGA Plat- form of Women Leaders\u201d, to discuss priority issues on the international community\u2019s agenda and identify solutions to today\u2019s complex and interlinked challenges.<\/p>\n<p>It is a special initiative of the Assembly president and UN-Women to help enhance the focus of the 193-Member organ on gender equality.<\/p>\n<p>The theme for this year is \u201cTransformative solutions by Women Leaders to Today\u2019s Interlinked Crises\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-8cea0e97e63318a222d155b2558243dd\">General Debate: Sept 20 to 26<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is the busiest diplomatic session of the year at the UN head- quarters in New York. Heads of state and government explored solutions to the intertwined global challenges under the theme, \u201cA Watershed Moment: Transformative solutions to interlocking challenges\u201d. <\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-c26d72c1750cfa0b1db0787940982560\">30th Anniversary of the Declaration of the Rights of Minorities <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As requested by a General Assembly resolution, a high-level meeting was convened to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of Persons of Belonging to National or Ethnic, Religious and Linguistic Minorities. <\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-06dbe93ba9248c0d9f3942d6df36f83e\">Leaders\u2019 round-table on climate change<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Amid the worsening climate crisis, the secretary-general, with the president of Egypt, hosted a closed Leaders\u2019 Roundtable on Climate Action, bringing together a small but representative group of heads of state and government to reboot international co-operation on climate action.<\/p>\n<p>The aim was to have a frank and informal exchange in the lead-up to COP27 set to take place in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt at the end of the year. <\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"strong-49b650d8ce44cf8f5f2c45a8380b9947\">Security Council\u2019s high-level meeting on Ukraine<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Foreign ministers of the current members of the security council held the meeting at the security council chamber, to debate on the war in Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Other meetings included: <\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Commemorating International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons. <\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Ending the Covid-19 Pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Accelerating Jobs and Social Protection for Just Transitions.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 High-level Meeting on the Sahel. <\/p>\n<p>The meetings were the formal ones that were agreed upon to be held during this 77th session of UNGA as part of the programme for this year. There were as usual many bilateral and other meetings held on the side- lines of the formal ones.<\/p>\n<p>The period is a hive of diplomatic activities in the UN building and other venues in the Manhattan area of New York. The meetings keep diplomats in missions in New York and at country headquarters level. Heads of state and government are not exempted from a few hours of sleep and endless meetings.<\/p>\n<p>Many of the issues affect all regions and member states. The sessions are important for developing countries as this is the forum where they have an equal voice and votes with all other member states of the UN. <\/p>\n<p>For those of us who have had the privilege and honour to represent our country \u2013 and having worked in the Secretariat \u2013 can attest to the value and importance of multilateral- ism as the best system within which to navigate all means of sustaining global peace, security, stability and development.<\/p>\n<p>*Welile Nhlapo is South Africa\u2019s former ambassador and national security adviser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Welile Nhlapo The 77th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA), convened predominantly in person with 193 members heads of state and government, was the first at the UN headquarters since the declaration of Covid-19 as a pandemic by the World Health Organization and worldwide restrictions to contain its spread.
