Activité:
Toward Improved Connectivity for the Pacific
Description de l'activité:
Pacific island states have been served by a diversity of telecommunication mechanisms, from submarine cable and satellite to 2-way radio. However, the return of global enthusiasm for building connectivity "pipe" and applications, plus other circumstances including new institution-building in the Caribbean, offer opportunities and modalities for the Pacific to benefit considerably from modern telecoms. ESCAP has conducted a study of the situation, and is working with Pacific island states and other stakeholders toward improving telecoms (and benefits therefrom) for the Pacific.
