WRC-23: meeting of General Secretaries in the desert

At WRC-23 with Doreen Bogdan-Martin At WRC-23 it was not all just about work, there was also time for networking and several side events were organized to make it easy to know the other participants and reinforce the relationship among them.

One of these events was a trip to the Dubai desert in occasion of the 52nd National Day of the United Arab Emirates, the host country of the WRC-23. There were several traditional shows: camels, falcons, food, drink, a massive dinner and a spectacular sunset.

There, in a more relaxed atmosphere, it was possible to exchange impressions with locals and colleagues.

In this context, it took place the meeting between the EURAO Secretary-General, EA3CIW, and the ITU Secretary-General, Doreen Bogdan-Martin, KD2JTX, from left to right in the picture.

WRC-23: EURAO was at Dubai venue

EURAO at WRC-23 EURAO's delegation was at the World Radiocommunication Conference 2023 in Dubai this month. An interesting experience and one more step in learning how this organization works and what our role should be as members of ITU-R.

Working groups, committees, plenary sessions, country delegations, acronyms, protocols, hallways, coffee breaks, simultaneous translation devices, side events, etc. A whole world to which EURAO is beginning to have access and which it must know how to manage responsibly.

EURAO celebrated WTISD 2023 with ITU

17 May is the World Telecommunication and Information Society Day (WTISD).

The theme of this year is: "Empowering the least developed countries through information and communication tech­no­logies".

Invited by ITU, EURAO participated remotely in this event.

WRC-19: better than expected for Amateur Radio

WRC-19 Certainly, EURAO did not attend the World Radiocommunication Conference 2019. Maybe it is too early since it became ITU sector member few months ago. However, it is clear that its irruption on the scene has caused, in the incumbent, the need to give more information and explanations. Or is it just advertising?

Proof of this is the weekly reports issued from the venue, which did not happen for the previous WRC-15. Just check the Google search engine. But, anyway, transparency is always welcome!

Modestly, we are proud of our contribution at European level through the CEPT, where the 2m threat was stopped and the 6m extend promoted.

ITU welcomes EURAO as a Radiocommunications sector member

ITU welcomes EURAO The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) admitted EURAO as a sector member in June, just a couple of days before HAM RADIO exhibition, although the official letter arrived later. That's why we were so happy after five years pursuing that goal.

Now Amateur Radio is no longer represented by a single organization. The more the better. Sincere thanks to all members who had believed in this project.
