24 August 2022: The MoU between ITU-T, IAF and ILAC provides critical support to ITU's Conformance and Interoperability (C&I) programme. Conformance with international standards is one of the core principles underlying the global interoperability of ICT networks and devices. The ITU Conformity and Interoperability (C&I) programme was initiated at the request of ITU’s membership to enhance the conformity and interoperability of ICT products implementing ITU Recommendations or part thereof. The purpose of this MoU is to establish effective collaborative linkages between the ITU-T, IAF and ILAC in the area of conformity and interoperability of ICT products, to facilitate achieving the desired level of connectivity and ‘usability’ of services to the end-users.
