About the Committee

The General Assembly Fourth Committee (GA4) of the United Nations addresses issues related to special political and decolonization matters. It covers topics such as the rights of indigenous peoples, the administration of non-self-governing territories, and the peaceful uses of outer space. GA4 also discusses the operations of various UN agencies, like the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), and reviews peacekeeping missions. It plays a crucial role in advancing self-determination for territories under colonial rule and shaping policies on disarmament, human rights, and international security
