Regional Development Forum and Regional Preparatory Meeting for WTDC-17 for Asia-Pacific

The Regional Preparatory Meeting for World Telecommunication Development Conference 2017 (WTDC-17) for Asia and the Pacific will take place on 21-23 March 2017, and it will be preceded by the Regional Development Forum for Asia and the Pacific, on 20 March. Both events will be held in Bali, Indonesia, at the Padma Resort Legian, and will be hosted by the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology of the Republic of Indonesia.

The Regional Preparatory Meeting aims at engaging members of the International Telecommunication Union in the preparations of the WTDC-17, in order to achieve regional coordination before the conference itself. It also seeks to identify issues at the regional level that need to be addressed to foster the development of telecommunications and ICTs, taking into account the most pressing needs faced by the member states and sector members of the region.  

Regional Development Forums provide an opportunity for high-level dialogue, cooperation and partnerships among telecommunication and ICT policy-makers, regulators, industry, academia, regional and international development agencies and organisations on specific regional telecommunications and ICT issues.
