The International Telecommunication Union (ITU;
French: Union Internationale des Télécommunications), originally the
International Telegraph Union (French: Union Télégraphique Internationale), is
a specialized agency of the United Nations (UN) that is responsible for issues
that concern information and communication technologies.
The ITU coordinates the shared global use of the
radio spectrum, promotes international cooperation in assigning satellite
orbits, works to improve telecommunication infrastructure in the developing
world, and assists in the development and coordination of worldwide technical
standards. The ITU is active in areas including broadband Internet,
latest-generation wireless technologies, aeronautical and maritime navigation,
radio astronomy, satellite-based meteorology, convergence in fixed-mobile
phone, Internet access, data, voice, TV broadcasting, and next-generation
networks.
ITU also organizes worldwide and regional
exhibitions and forums, such as ITU TELECOM WORLD, bringing together
representatives of government and the telecommunications and ICT industry to
exchange ideas, knowledge and technology.
ITU, based in Geneva, Switzerland, is a member of
the United Nations Development Group. ITU has been an intergovernmental
public-private partnership organization since its inception. Its membership
includes 193 Member States and around 700 public and private sector companies
as well as international and regional telecommunication entities, known as
