Question 5/1 - Telecommunications/ICTs for rural and remote areas
2021  

The attainment of the SDGs will depend to a large degree on ensuring that all communities, including those living in rural and remote areas, are connected. Such connectivity depends on the technologies that are deployed and the services that are available to rural and remote communities, as well as small island developing States (SIDS) and landlocked countries (LLC), especially landlocked developing countries (LLDCs) - this ITU-D study group final report results from four years of collaborative work of ITU membership on Question 5/1: Telecommunications/ICTs for rural and remote areas approved at WTDC-17. Insightful guidelines are brought forward based on country case studies and lessons learnt from industry and academia work.
