Commonwealth Candidates for ITU Plenipotentiary 2018
The ITU Plenipotentiary Conference consists of the representatives of the Member States of the Union.
The Plenipotentiary Conference is the highest policy-making body of the ITU. Held every four years, it is the key event at which ITU Member States decide on the future role of the organization, thereby determining the organization’s ability to influence and affect the development of information and communication technologies (ICTs) worldwide. The Conference:
- sets the Union’s general policies;
- adopts four-year strategic and financial plans; and
- elects the senior management team of the organization, the Member States of the Council, and the members of the Radio Regulations Board.
In 2018, the ITU Plenipotentiary Conference will meet for the 20th time in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from Monday, 29 October to Friday, 16 November 2018. It will be preceded by the last meeting of the 2018 session of the Council on Saturday, 27 October 2018.
