The ITU/UNESCO Broadband Commission
for Sustainable Development
(2010-2025)











Established in 2010 by ITU, UNESCO, H.E. President Paul Kagame of Rwanda, and Mr. Carlos Slim Helu of Mexico, the Broadband Commission elevated the importance of broadband on the international policy agenda.

After fifteen years of advancing broadband connectivity through multistakeholder partnerships and advocacy, the Broadband Commission’s strategic framework, the Broadband Advocacy Targets, reached its expiration at the end of 2025.

The Commission set a valuable precedent for the importance of collaborative work to connect the unconnected. With over 100 knowledge products and 35+ multistakeholder Working Groups, the Commission issued more than 70 practical policy recommendations published across 15 editions of the annual flagship State of Broadband report.

We thank the dedicated Commissioners, External Experts, donors, our many partners and the Secretariat team.
