The IPU is a global organization that brings together national parliaments from around the world. The 149th Assembly serves as an annual meeting where all members of the IPU and its various committees, such as the Forum of Women Parliamentarians and the Forum of Young MPs, convene to discuss pressing global issues. This assembly provides a vital platform for delegates to deliberate on important topics, exchange views, and galvanize parliamentary action.
The theme for this year’s assembly was “Harnessing Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) for a more peaceful and sustainable future.” This theme reflects the growing recognition of the role that science and technology play in addressing global challenges, including peace, sustainability, and development.
