International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
About Us
The ITU is the oldest agency of the United Nations. We have been shaping communications, constantly evolving and connecting the world for over 150 years. Our history – and our future – are the history and future of communication technology itself.
We believe in the power of technology to improve human lives everywhere
We value technology and technical expertise to help people communicate and prosper. Digital technology drives social and economic development, enabling us to address global challenges such as health and climate. Technology is not for technology’s sake, but for the good of humanity and of the planet.
We believe in inclusivity
ICTs and the benefits they bring should be available to everyone, everywhere, regardless of nation, economic status, gender, age or ability. We work towards universal access to digital technology, closing the digital divide and opening up opportunity to all. We value collaboration and consensus. We provide a neutral global platform for nations, industries, international organizations, and research institutions to work together on an equal footing and with an equal voice. Building consensus, creating partnerships, and delivering change depend on mutual respect.
Join us
