The ITU, with Nigeria as a member, concluded its Radiocommunication Assembly 2023 (RA-23) in Dubai, adopting a resolution to guide the development of standards and radio interface technologies for 6G within the International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT) systems.
Additionally, RA-23 addressed Gender Equality in the ITU Radiocommunication Sector, adopting a resolution to enhance the active involvement of women in the field.
The ITU Secretary-General emphasized the significance of the Assembly's outcomes, shaping the future of radiocommunication systems worldwide.
The resolution on gender equality builds upon the 2019 World Radiocommunication Conference's commitment to promoting gender equality, equity, and parity within the ITU Radiocommunication Sector.
The resolution calls for strengthened efforts to reflect a commitment to gender equality and empower women in various aspects of ITU R activities.
Australia's Carol Wilson, the first woman to chair an ITU Radiocommunication Assembly, played a prominent role in these developments.
