Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, 18 July 2013
Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) assemble experts from around the
world to develop international standards known as ITU-T Recommendations which act as defining elements in the global infrastructure of information and communication technologies (ICTs).
The ITU-T Standards

ITU-T Study Groups
Standardization work is carried out by the technical Study Groups (SGs) in which representatives of the ITU-T membership develop Recommend-ations (standards) for the various fields of international Tele-communications.
Standards are critical to the interoperability of ICTs and whether we exchange voice, video or data, mes-sages, standards enable global comm-unications by ensuring that countries’ ICT networks and devices are speaking the same language.
