Kitty and the World Conference (German:Kitty und die Weltkonferenz) is a 1939 German comedy film directed by Helmut Käutner and starring Hannelore Schroth, Fritz Odemar and Christian Gollong. The film is a screwball-style comedy set against the backdrop of an international peace conference. Following the outbreak of the Second World War the Propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels ordered it withdrawn from cinemas as it he felt it presented too favourable a view of Britain.

The film's sets were designed by the art director Max Mellin. The film was based on a play, which served as the basis for the 1956 remake Kitty and the Great Big World.
