Expanding broadband access for sustainable development.
The Broadband Commission for Sustainable Development is a public-private partnership fostering digital cooperation and developing actionable recommendations for achieving universal connectivity.
Established in 2010 by ITU, UNESCO, H.E. President Paul Kagame of Rwanda, and Mr. Carlos Slim Helú of Mexico, our mission is to boost the importance of broadband on the international policy agenda and expand broadband access to every country. Today, the Commission comprises around 50 Commissioners who represent a cross-cutting group of top CEO and industry leaders, senior policy-makers and government representatives, and experts from international agencies, academia and organizations concerned with development.
The Commission acts as a UN advocacy engine for implementing the UNSG’s Roadmap for Digital Cooperation, leveraging the strength of our membership and collective expertise to advocate for meaningful, safe, secure, and sustainable broadband communications services that are reflective of human and children’s rights.
The Commission brings together top global leaders and visionaries in ICT, representing all sectors and interests, to reach a consensus on inclusive and sustainable recommendations for achieving universal broadband connectivity. Commissioners are invited to serve as members, attend collaborative meetings, contribute to Working Group research, provide insight into policy recommendations and actively lead the creation of, and advocate for, the outcomes of the Commission.
