resumes in January until all issues on the agenda are addressed – which often is just before the next session starts.</p> <p>Since the 60th session in 2005, the President-elect of the General Assembly suggests a theme of global concern for the upcoming general debate, based on informal discussions with Member States, the President of the current session of the General Assembly, and the Secretary-General. Shortly after his/her election, the President-elect sends a letter to all Member States announcing the theme for the upcoming general debate and inviting them to focus their speeches on the proposed theme. </p> <table> <tbody> <tr> <th id="col1">Session</th> <th id="col2">President</th> <th id="col3">Theme</th> </tr> <tr> <td>79th (2024-2025)</a></td> <td><a href="/en/ga/president/79/">Mr. Philemon Yang (Cameroon)</a></td> <td>"Unity and diversity for advancing peace, sustainable development and human dignity, everywhere and for all"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="/en/ga/78/">78th (2023-2024)</a></td> <td><a href="/pga/78/about/biography/">Mr. Dennis Francis (Trinidad and Tobago) </a></td> <td>"Rebuilding trust and reigniting global solidarity: Accelerating action on the 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals towards peace, prosperity, progress and sustainability for all"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="/en/ga/77/">77th (2022-2023)</a></td> <td><a href="/pga/77/about/biography/">Mr. Csaba Kőrösi (Hungary) </a></td> <td>"A watershed moment: transformative solutions to interlocking challenges"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="/en/ga/76/">76th (2021-2022)</a></td> <td><a href="/pga/76/about/biography/">Mr. Abdulla Shahid (Maldives)</a></td> <td>"A presidency of hope: delivering for people, for the planet and for prosperity"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="/en/ga/75/">75th (2020-2021)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/75/">Mr. Volkan Bozkir (Turkey)</a></td> <td>"The Future we want, the United Nations we need: reaffirming our collective commitment to multilateralism – confronting COVID-19 through effective multilateral action"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="/en/ga/74/">74th (2019-2020)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/74/">Mr. Tijjani Muhammad-Bande (Nigeria)</a></td> <td>"Striving together, delivering for all"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/73/">73rd (2018-2019)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/73/">Ms. María Fernanda Espinosa Garcés (Ecuador)</a></td> <td>"Making the United Nations relevant to all people: Global leadership and shared responsibilities for peaceful, equitable and sustainable societies"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/72/">72nd (2017-2018)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/72/">Mr. Miroslav Lajčák (Slovakia)</a></td> <td>"Focusing on People: Striving for Peace and a Decent Life for All on a Sustainable Planet"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/71/">71st (2016-2017)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/71/">Mr. Peter Thomson (Fiji)</a></td> <td>"The Sustainable Development Goals: A Universal Push to Transform our World"</td> <tr> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/70/">70th (2015-2016)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/70/">Mr. Mogens Lykketoft (Denmark)</a></td> <td>"The United Nations at 70 — A New Commitment to Action"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/69/">69th (2014-2015)</a></td> <td><a href="https://www.un.org/en/ga/president/69/">Mr. Sam Kutesa (Uganda)</a></td> <td>"Delivering on and Implementing a Transformative Post-2015 Development Agenda"</td> </tr> <tr> <td><a href="/en/ga/68/">68th (2013-2014)</a></td> <td><a href="/en/ga/president/68/">Mr. John W.
