ITU Regional Development Forum for Europe

The 2016 edition of the Regional Development Forum for Europe will take place on 27-28 September, in Budva, Montenegro. The meeting is organised by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), in collaboration with the Agency for Electronic Communications and Postal Services on Montenegro. It will be held back to back with the regional conference on 'Regulation of Electronic Communications Market'. 

The Forum will provide an opportunity for high-level dialogue between the ITU Telecommunication Development Bureau (BDT) and decision makers, governments and regulators of ITU member states and sector members. It will serve as a platform for assessing stratgegic orientations that may have an impact on BDT's regional work plan. Discussions will be held on the five regional initiatives approved by 2014 World Telecommunication Development Conference, providing members with an opportunity to exchange experiences and best practice in the implementation of these initiatives. It will also pay special attention to the new ITU Strategic Plan for 2016-2019, the activities of the ITU-D Study Groups, and the activities of the ITU Centres of Excellence.
