On Tuesday, 2 September, the UN Secretary-General arrived in Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea.

At the invitation of Prime Minister James Marape, the Secretary-General takes part in events to mark the 50th anniversary of the Papua New Guinea’s independence.

On Wednesday, 3 September, the Secretary-General is scheduled to deliver an address to the Parliament, during which he will highlight how in just 50 years, in a land of over 800 languages and countless traditions, the people of Papua New Guinea have undertaken the task of forging a nation from profound diversity, with a shared commitment to speak with one voice for peace, for dignity, and for progress.

He will also emphasize that this is his first trip to the Pacific since the landmark advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) – in which the region played a central role.

You will recall that the opinion affirms that addressing the climate crisis is a legal obligation under international law.

This will be the first visit to Papua New Guinea ever by a sitting UN Secretary-General.
