Demystifying Digital series

The ITU Demystifying Digital series aims to demystify technology for a predominantly non-technical audience. It brings together ITU staff and experts with members of the diplomatic community, facilitating a better understanding of emerging trends and fostering discussions on their potential impact.

These informative sessions are hosted by Permanent Missions upon their request. The topics of interest are identified by the host. So far, the ITU has successfully conducted Demystifying Digital sessions on the Metaverse, Sustainable and Green Standards, and Quantum, with several more planned for the upcoming months.
