ITU Regional and Special Initiatives for Europe

​​​The ITU’s initiatives in Europe are centered around global activities and projects. These regional Initiatives are designed to address specific priority areas of particular importance to the Europe region.

Formulated and revised at successive 4-yearly World Telecommunication Development Conferences (WTDC), these regional initiatives mobilize creative partnerships to implement the range of small, medium and large scale projects outlined here. Regional initiatives guide ITU and countries themselves in developing and implementing specific projects to address priority needs in the area of telecommunications and information and communication technologies.
 
The ITU welcomes all stakeholders to engage with us in developing and delivering these vital actions.​ Contact us at eurregion(at)itu.int.
