He is set to meet with leaders from various nations during the trip and hold discussions.
During the trip, the President will also attend the Summit of the Future on the sidelines of UNGA 79 and deliver a speech to students at Princeton University.
Minister of Climate Change, Environment and Energy Thoriq Ibrahim will be joining the President in the meetings. He left for New York yesterday.
The President is expected to return to the Maldives on September 29.
