Broadband for Development: Taking it to the Next Level

Apr, 05, 2013 Hi-network.com

The United Nation's (UN) Broadband Commission for Digital Development has clearly demonstrated the link between broadband and achieving the UN's eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

The UN set out these important goals for global development in 2000 with a target for 2015. With one thousand days left, it is time to focus on what is next.

Today the UN Broadband Commission outlined the importance of broadband and urged the UN's High-Level Panel of Eminent Persons in an open letter to include broadband as they develop the UN's post-2015 development agenda.

The Broadband Commission is led by chairs and co-chairs, Hamadoun Toure (Secretary-General of the ITU), Irina Bokova (Director-General of UNESCO), Paul Kagame (President of Rwanda) and Carlos Slim (CEO of Grupo Carso).

This is a major step in the right direction to increase the awareness and importance of broadband to global development, especially for the billions of people in the developing world.
