SUMMARY:Americas Regional Radiocommunication Seminar and Spectrum Management Task Force Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The ITU Radiocommunication Bureau intends to perform a yearly cycle of Regional Radiocommunication Seminars\, to be held on the different regions worldwide\, which will deal with the use of the radio-frequency spectrum and the satellite orbits\, and\, in particular\, with the application of the provisions of the ITU Radio Regulations. The main advantages of the regional seminars are: \n\nWithin each region\, more officials from national frequency management organizations can participate\, and also more participants from other radiocommunication sector stakeholders;\nSeminar’s Agenda can be focused on pertinent regional situations and problematic;\nA closer dialogue can be established among participants and they can be more easily trained in the latest ICT tools for frequency management developed by ITU\, and better apply for their particular problematic;\nITU Staff would be in a position to better understand local frequency management problems and\, therefore\, provide more appropriate assistance.\n\nRegistration for this event will be carried out exclusively online\, through the respective designated focal point (DFP). Registration will begin on 19 May 2014. Advance registration is strongly advised for all participants; unannounced participants will face further delays at the on-site registration desks. \nmore
