**BACKGROUND INFORMATION**:
The Pacific Small Island Developing States (PSIDS) face significant challenges due to their unique geographical isolation, remote and scattered islands, small populations, and limited telecommunications infrastructure. These factors make it challenging and costly to develop robust communication networks and benefit from economies of scale. Additionally, the socio-economic vulnerabilities of PSIDS make them prone to global economic fluctuations, natural disasters, and the impacts of climate change.
The existing digital divide in the region necessitates customised support to address the critical telecommunications and ICT needs of PSIDS. Moreover, capacity constraints within PSIDS governments underscore the pressing need for sustained assistance to enable the region to meet its telecommunications and ICT development goals as well as the SDGs.
Recognizing these challenges, member states have proposed the establishment of an ITU regional presence in the Pacific to cater to the specific requirements of PSIDS and foster closer collaboration with local and international partners to expedite digital transformation in the area. The ITU Council 2020 and the Kigali Action Plan from WTDC-22 have both emphasised the importance of increased ITU engagement in the Pacific region and the implementation of the ITU Strategic Plan for 2024-2027, highlighting the need for collaboration with various stakeholders.
Furthermore, the Pacific ICT Ministerial Declaration 2023 (the Lagatoi Declaration) has identified digital transformation as the theme and has also called for strengthened ITU involvement in the Pacific, advocating for enhanced partnerships to achieve shared objectives. The Fourth International Conference on Small Island Developing States also emphasized on the need for digitalization in the Pacific.
Recognising the telecommunications/ICT unique needs of PSIDS DITRDCA Australia, in collaboration with ITU developed a two-year project to formulate recommendations for increased engagement in the region that can better address the unique needs of PSIDS. The project will conduct a situational analysis and needs assessment, focusing on identifying specific telecommunications/information and communication technology (ICT) needs common to the Pacific region, which will be followed by a feasibility study that will outline and evaluate several options to formulate recommendations to serve as a basis for further discussions on potential models for strengthening ITU's presence in the PSIDS.
