• 2018 ITU Plenipotentiary Conference
(PP–18)
PP–18 will take place in Dubai,
United Arab Emirate, from—October 29
to November 17, 2018. The
Plenipotentiary Conference, which takes
place every four years, is the highest
policy-making body of the Union. PP–18
will determine the overall policy
direction of the ITU; adopt the strategic
and financial plans for the next four
years; elect the 48 members of Council,
12 members of the Radio Regulations
Board, and five Elected Officials; and
consider and adopt, if appropriate,
modifications to the ITU Constitution
and Convention. The Department seeks
advice from stakeholders and interested
parties to inform its upcoming
preparations for PP–18, to include but
not limited to input on the following
questions:
1. Maintaining the stability of the
Constitution and Convention and the
mandate of ITU, the Strategic and
Financial Plans, Internet-related issues,
and elections are typical U.S. priorities
for a plenipotentiary conference. Should
these remain U.S. priorities? What other
U.S. priorities should be considered?
2. Should the United States propose
to initiate a process of ITU reform at PP–
18? If so, what areas for reform should
be prioritized?
3. What are the major areas of concern
for PP–18 and how should the United
States address them?
