2021 has been a year of great progress with regard to strengthening the ITU Regional Presence, which while representative of all of ITU, is managed by and perhaps most closely tied to, the BDT.
In 2019 ITU set in motion a reform process for the ITU Regional Presence, instructing the Secretary General to appoint an independent external management consultancy to perform a comprehensive programmatic, strategic and financial assessment and review of ITU’s Regional Presence. PwC was appointed to conduct the review and its final report was delivered and presented to ITU Council in 2020.
