World Conference of Speakers of Parliament: Inaugural Session - 29 July 2025

The Sixth World Conference of Speakers of Parliament, organized by the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), in close collaboration with the United Nations, takes place from 29 to 31 July 2025 at the Palais des Nations (United Nations Office at Geneva). The Speakers’ Conference is preceded by the 15th Summit of Women Speakers of Parliament, held on 28 July 2025.

The Conference, first established in 2000 on the eve of the United Nations Millennium Summit, provides a unique forum for high-level engagement and dialogue among parliamentary leaders from around the world. Previous Conferences, held every five years since then, have served as catalysts for shaping and strengthening the parliamentary dimension of global governance, thereby helping to bridge the democracy gap in international affairs. This occasion marks the culmination of two years of work by a Preparatory Committee of approximately 20 Speakers of Parliament from all regions of the world, and promises to be the largest ever gathering of its kind. In keeping with the IPU’s inclusive approach, it also features prominent leaders from other international organizations, academia and civil society organizations, as well as the media.
