In historic elections, Bogdan-Martin received the majority of Member
State votes, pledging meaningful connectivity as her goal. She will
be the first woman to lead the UN specialized agency in its 157-year
history
Worth noting that Tomas Lamanauskas was elected to the position of
Deputy Secretary General. He is also a strong advocate of dialogue,
collaboration, transparency and sustainability in the wider sense.
Kindest regards,
Olivier

Doreen Bogdan-Martin has just been elected as secretary-general of the ITU. She’s also the first woman to get the job and she may well the first woman to lead a UN agency.
