Millions of people around the world have signed up for regular updates from the UN’s social media accounts and millions more are talking about UN issues. You can join these discussions by using the official meeting hashtag, #UNGA, across your social media channels. New this year is the custom emoji on Twitter that appears when a user adds the official #UNGA hashtag to tweets. For the Summit for Refugees and Migrants we are using #UN4RefugeesMigrants.
Let us share our stories on Snapchat with you. Follow “united-nations” and get an inside look at the many exciting happenings in and around UN Headquarters.
All the #UNGA Plenary Sessions, and most high-level, special and side events will be webcast live at http://webtv.un.org. Be sure to tune in all week. Want to know who is speaking when? Check the official lists.
