The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the Association of Communications and Telecommunications Regulators of the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (ARCTEL) signed a cooperation agreement to implement joint activities focusing on capacity building and education. The agreement was concluded at the 8th Communications Forum of the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP), held in Guinea Bissau on 15-16 February 2017, at which most of the countries that will benefit from the Agreement were in attendance.
Following the launch of the online programme in Communications Management between ITU and UKTA, a flexible program and delivery schedule has been designed in partnership with The University of Rwanda (an ITU centre of excellence).
