In a video address at the sixth session of the UN Environment Assembly (UNEA-6), UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called on countries to come together to address the planet’s most-pressing environmental challenges.
“You have shown before that you can unite and deliver,” he told delegates. “I urge you to do so again – and go further.“
The address came during the opening plenary of the UNEA-6 high-level segment.
The sixth session of the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA-6) is being held from 26 February to 1 March 2024 at the UNEP headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya, under the theme: Effective, inclusive and sustainable multilateral actions to tackle climate change, biodiversity loss and pollution. Through its resolutions and calls to action, the Assembly provides leadership and catalyzes intergovernmental action on the environment.
