UN summit
International leaders' meeting
A UN summit is a high-level meeting of world leaders convened by the United Nations to address major global issues—climate change, poverty, human rights, or international security.
These gatherings bring together heads of state and government rather than lower-ranking diplomats: The climate agreement was finalized at the UN summit in Paris.
Summits often produce declarations, frameworks, or commitments that shape international policy.
