The third regular session of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly, was held from 21 September to 12 December 1948 in Paris, France and from 5 April to 18 May 1949 in New York City, United States.[1][2] The permanent Headquarters of the United Nations did not yet exist, so sessions of the General Assembly were convened in various cities; this was the first one to be held in Continental Europe.[3]

The president of the United Nations General Assembly for both parts of the third session was Herbert Vere Evatt of Australia.[4]
