United Nations agency headquartered in Geneva.

Its roots can be traced to 1865, when the International Telegraph Union was established to coordinate international development of the telegraph. It acquired its present name in 1934 and became a UN specialized agency in 1947. Its activities include regulating allocation of Radio frequencies, setting standards on technical and operational matters, and assisting countries in developing their own telecommunications systems.
