Information to Staff on 1st session of the UN-Habitat Assembly

I am sure by now you are all aware that the up-coming first session of the UN-Habitat Assembly will take place from 27th to 31st May 2019. This is pursuant to the General Assembly resolution 73/239 of 20th December 2018 which abolished the UN-Habitat Governing Council as a subsidiary organ of the General Assembly and replaced it with the UN-Habitat Assembly, a universal body consisting of 193 Member States of United Nations.
