The UNGA Dialogues.

Since 2006, Diplomatic Courier and World in 2050 have convened leaders at the world’s most meaningful summits and convenings, creating spaces where dialogue, trust, and cooperative long-term thinking can rejuvenate or take root. This year in New York, alongside the UN General Assembly Meetings, this work continues through UNGA Dialogues.

UNGA remains the world’s most visible multilateral stage, with world leaders articulating national priorities amid a rapidly fragmenting international order. Yet beyond the rostrum and public diplomacy where increasingly critical multi-track diplomacy thrives, there is a deeper need: spaces where trust can be built and long-term thinking thrives.

UNGA Dialogues brings together leaders across government, multilateral institutions, finance, philanthropy, technology, and civil society for private exchanges and working sessions designed for momentum, not metrics. Above all, it creates space for honest, private dialogue to rekindle trust and cooperative thinking. At a time when multilateralism faces both skepticism and strain, UNGA Dialogues exists to renew trust quietly and move from dialogue to direction.
