Dr. Keith Dickerson, BSc PhD CEng MIEE MBCS, ITU-T SG5 WP3 Chairman, UK Keith Dickerson has worked in the ICT industry for over 30 years and is currently Head of Standards as part of BT Innovate & Design. He provides direction to all BT’s international standards activities working closely with senior management to identify the key technologies for BT and the standards required to support BT programmes such as the 21st Century Network. Keith directs a team of professional engineers participating in standards in all areas related to ICT. He is responsible for developing strategies for BT’s participation in many standards bodies and fora including ITU. He was responsible for hosting the IETF in London in 2001 and is a member of the Internet Society (ISOC). Keith takes a keen interest in Climate Change issues and organized and ran the 2nd ITU symposium on ICTs and Climate Change hosted by BT in London in June 2008. This built on the results of the 1st ICTs and Climate Change symposium held in Kyoto in April, and covered issues such as how standards for ICT equipment can contribute to reducing their Greenhouse Gas emissions, how ICTs can contribute to reductions in emissions in other sectors, and how we can address behavioral and cultural barriers to changing our working practices. One of the conclusions was that investment in GHG-reducing ICTs can be seen as a “smart opportunity” in that it not only helps in saving the planet but also contributes to reducing costs and improving profitability. Keith subsequently acted as editor of the resolution on ICTs and Climate Change during WTSA in Johannesburg in October 2008, and was able to build an international consensus to reach a successful conclusion. He is now Chairman of ITU-T SG5 WP3 ICTs & Climate Change. br>
