The 73rd 2018 UN General Assembly
The 73rd 2018 UN General Assembly meeting was held in New York City. The seminar which was scheduled to begin on the 18th September 2018 lasted for nine days. The president of the 73rd conference was known as Maria Fernanda Espinosa. Before members from various countries gathered to discuss critical matters, the Union's president had provided a notice in June regarding the agenda of the 73rd session.
Topics Covered During the Meeting
The meeting intended to cover topics that impacted its members. The first issue that was highlighted included an attempt to bring sense to the UN as a whole. For the president of this organization to bring sense to all nations, there was a need to enhance equity concerning power distribution to all. UN could improve unity if its leaders were practicing transparency and accountability among its member states ("Event: 73Rd Session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA 73) | SDG Knowledge Hub | IISD"). Also, the concept of gender parity was discussed at length. Members also looked at the idea of immigration and the refugee problem ("Event: 73Rd Session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA 73) | SDG Knowledge Hub | IISD"). Besides, environmental conservation was considerably analyzed during the nine-day session.
Pursuit of Peace
However, those who attended the conference emphasized the problem of creating peace across the globe. To build peace, there was a need to restructure the entire United Nation's operations so that most countries could be satisfied. Sustaining numerous states in their economic, social, and political setups could probably create mutual co-existence in most regions of the world ("Event: 73Rd Session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA 73) | SDG Knowledge Hub | IISD"). Even though most of the attendants advocated for power parity in the organization, Maria Fernanda Espinosa and the top officials primarily focused on the concept of peaceful living among individuals.
