The BDT Director launched the Dashboard for Universal and Meaningful Connectivity at the 2023 World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators Symposium (WTIS-23). Through simple visualizations and tables, the Dashboard allows to track progress of countries towards the Universal and Meaningful Connectivity (UMC) Targets and to benchmark performance across countries. Launched as a 'beta' version, the Dashboard for Universal and Meaningful Connectivity will be further developed in the coming years.
The Dashboard is part of the recent ITU-EU project on promoting and measuring universal and meaningful connectivity which is funded by the European Union.
