Council 2023 concluded that remote participation is an invaluable tool for Member States and instructed the Secretary-General to prepare a roadmap for the harmonization and the development of facilities and capabilities to organize and conduct fully virtual meetings and physical meetings with remote participation by electronic means for the meetings of the Union, for submission to the 2024 session of the Council. 16th meeting of the Council Working Group on Financial and Human Resources (CWG-FHR) discussed the lack of clarity around the rights of remote participants, and the need to establish clear guidance, which is consistent across the ITU, on their rights and involvement, in particular who can participate in decision-making. It was agreed to work on creating draft guidelines. The information provided in this document on the current practices of the ITU on the conduct of fully virtual meetings and physical meetings with remote participation by electronic means may be of use in undertaking this task.
