What is the United Diplomats Global Assembly?
The assembly is an independent educational simulation organised by United Diplomats and powered by Global Peace Chain. It takes place inside the United Nations Conference Centre in Bangkok, and confirmed delegates register through the UN’s Indico system to receive an official event badge.
Delegates sit together in one hall, each representing a country, to debate, negotiate and adopt resolutions on a single agenda. The 2027 theme is “Artificial Intelligence for Peace and Sustainable Development: Shaping a Safe Digital Future”. The programme includes a diplomatic orientation, formal negotiations, a crisis simulation, a leadership masterclass, a networking dinner and a cultural tour of Bangkok.
