The Plenipotentiary Conference (Bucharest, 2022) instructed the Secretary-General in Decision 5 (Rev. Bucharest, 2022) to develop an ITU-wide resource mobilization strategy to address the need for additional funding to meet organizational priorities and to present it to the ITU Council for review and guidance on its implementation. This document is a first step towards that strategy. It provides baseline data and background information, along with initial plans of the secretariat and recommendations for the Council. The purpose of this document is to identify ways of strengthening both the regular budget and extra-budgetary revenues. With inputs from the 2023 session of the Council, the secretariat will then refine the concepts presented and further develop the strategy for presentation to the 2024 session.
