UN Secretary-General António Guterres addressed the World Radiocommunication Conference (WRC-23). Radio frequencies are the backbone of global communications, vital for education, healthcare, and climate monitoring. Expanding services and bridging the digital divide are crucial for reducing inequalities and advancing Sustainable Development Goals.

The finite radio spectrum demands efficient, equitable, and coordinated use to prevent interference. WRC-23 is a critical platform for governments, the private sector, and academia to collaborate on fair regulation, fostering inclusive investment and innovation. This aligns with responsible technology use and outer space preservation for future generations.

Guterres urged participants to share the radio spectrum wisely to build a sustainable future for all.
