He represented the Vatican administration at ITU for more than 50 years, since the GE75 conference and CCIR Mr Giudici was very active withing ITU and played a big role within the broadcasting community and the Study Group 6 (and its former SG 11).
He has been very active in promoting the digitalization of the sound broadcasting and contributed to develop the first DAB standard. Within the ITU he was very well known, he has been Vice Chair of the CCV and RAG for two mandates, rapporteur of the CCV to Study Group 6 for about 20 years. Since 1959, he attended almost all the RA and WARC and WRC till 2012.
Born in 1934, Mr Giudici’s journey was one of unwavering dedication, innovation, and service to the field of broadcasting in ITU and to the countless lives he touched through his work. His passion for communication, paired with an extraordinary ability to connect people across cultures and geographies, left an indelible mark on the industry.
Mr Giudici is survived by his beloved family members and ITU colleagues, who will continue to cherish his memory and legacy. His absence leaves a void that can never be filled, but his contributions will live on in the vibrant global broadcasting community he helped build.
As we bid farewell to Mr Giudici, let us honor his legacy by continuing the work he so passionately dedicated his life to. He will be remembered forever in our hearts and minds.
