Global People's Assembly 2022
Dear Colleagues,
We kindly invite you to participate in this year's Global People's Assembly, which will take place online from Tuesday 20th September - Thursday 22nd September 2022.
The Global People's Assembly is a self organised space during the United Nations General Assembly high level week. Our aim is to bring the voices of the people to the forefront, at a time where decision makers engage in high level debate without people's involvement.
Below you can find the newly updated programme for this year's assembly. Please use the zoom links provided in the pdf to check each of the sessions.
