Prince Harry and Meghan Markle visited the United Nations in New York on Saturday to meet with UN Deputy Secretary-General Amina Mohammed during the 193-member world body's annual gathering of leaders.
"It was a lovely meeting," Markle told reporters as the couple left U.N. headquarters.
Mohammed welcomed the commitment and work of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, the United Nations said. The goals were created by the United Nations in 2015 and tackle issues such as ending hunger and poverty, achieving gender equality and combating climate change.
"The Deputy Secretary-General affirmed support for shared priorities around climate action, women's economic empowerment, youth engagement and mental wellbeing," the United Nations said in a statement.
