The 76th UN General Assembly got under way on September 14.

With the Covid-19 pandemic still causing havoc for international travel, this year’s event will be smaller than in previous years.

The highlight is the week-long general debate, which provides all 193 member states with a platform to address the UN body.

Each day of the General Assembly, the debate runs in two parts. The morning session starts at 9am (Co-ordinated Universal Time-5), and runs until 2.45pm. The afternoon sessions start at 3pm and run until 9pm.
