Résumé :

The 2019 session of the Council instructed the Secretary-General, in parallel, to submit to the next Council session (1) a report explaining how the ITU is currently utilizing the Global Cybersecurity Agenda (GCA) framework and (2) with the involvement of Member States, appropriate guidelines developed for utilization of the GCA by the ITU for Council's consideration and approval (C19/117, C19/58).
Pursuant to these instructions, the draft Guidelines were formulated with the support of Chief Judge (Ret.) Stein Schjolberg (former HLEG Chair), Prof. Solange Ghernaouti and Mr. Noboru Nakatani, and with the involvement of Member States and other stakeholders, and along with the Secretariat Report (C21/36), were presented to the Virtual Consultation of Councillors 2021 (C21/VCC-1) for consideration and approval (C21/71).
Following C21/VCC-1, Council Member States noted the secretariat Report and made a decision by correspondence regarding the draft Guidelines to instruct the secretariat to conduct further consultations with Council Member States, taking into account the inputs received and the comments made at this meeting. The Secretariat should bring back a revised document 71 for consideration and approval at the next session of the Council.
Accordingly, further consultations were conducted with Council Member States and, taking into account the inputs received, the following Information Document was developed to support the revised draft Guidelines (C22/32). It is important to note that this effort is not meant to and will not address matters related to the revision of the GCA.
