ITU Workshop on
“Regulatory policies on universal access to broadband
services”
ITU-D Study Group 1, Question 7-2/1
Geneva, Switzerland
8 September 2008
|
|
Event Description Countries around the world develop universal access and service (UAS)
policies based on the premise that providing access to basic and
advanced telecommunications and ICT services have a wide-ranging
socio-economic rationale. In terms of reaping the benefits of
broadband in rural areas and among poorer population groups - which
is the concern of a universal access and service policy, a
discussion is needed on the best way to proceed, how much to invest,
what the required inputs are, what the results are and more
importantly, what the required additional framework conditions are.
To this end, ITU convened a workshop comprising regulators, policy-makers
and other interested stakeholders to exchange experiences and best
practices in extending access to broadband.
