ITU launches new online platform and storytelling campaign to mark 150th
anniversary   -
http://redirect.state.sbu/?url=www.itu150.org brings together #ITU150
global community

Geneva, 3 March 2015 - A new website has been launched to highlight ITU's
achievements and ongoing activities marking the Union's 150th anniversary
this year. See http://redirect.state.sbu/?url=www.itu150.org

The website contains new integrated features to showcase ITU 150
celebrations in Geneva and around the world, focusing on information and
communication technologies (ICT) as drivers of innovation. An interactive
ITU historical timeline will be included on the website to highlight key
dates in ITU's history from its founding on 17 May, 1865 until the present.

ITU Members and supporters are encouraged to plan activities throughout
2015 and submit them through the online tool available on the website. An
interactive world map provides easy access to all activities organized
around the world. Currently, some 60 activities in 30 countries are
presented and submission of new activities will be accepted until end 2015.
Submissions may include exhibitions, competitions, publications, articles,
workshops, websites and more. A toolkit is provided with campaign
materials, resources and instructions to get involved in ITU's 150th
anniversary celebrations.
