The website contains new integrated features to showcase ITU 150 celebrations in Geneva and around the world, focusing on information and communication technologies (ICT) as drivers of innovation. An interactive ITU historical timeline will be included on the website to highlight key dates in ITU’s history from its founding on 17 May, 1865 until the present.

A special section of the website is dedicated to a story-telling campaign with a personal story around the theme of the month. Stories are supplemented with a diverse range of related content, including videos, podcasts, webinars, infographics, and social media.

“This new online platform shows ITU’s achievements over the last 150 years in an easy to access and interactive format,” said ITU Secretary-General Houlin Zhao. “It gives us the opportunity to look to the future of innovation with ICTs as well as the contributions of our membership in connecting the world.”
