The 2019 Session of the Council, through its Decision 611 (Rev. Council 2020), decided that the Secretary-General shall convene
a balanced, informal group of experts (IEG-WTPF-21), each of whom is active in preparing for WTPF-21 in his/her own country, to assist with the development of the report by the Secretary-General to WTPF-21. Following the second virtual consultation of councillors in November 2020, a decision was taken by correspondence to amend the dates of the WTPF-21 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Council Decision 611 (Rev. Council 2020) was revised accordingly.
Member States, Sector Members, Associates, and Academia of ITU, as well as the State of Palestine and Organizations which have the right to attend ITU Conferences and meetings as observers, were invited to nominate their experts by sending their following contact details to wtpf@itu.int by 21 August 2019:
