 iCody seeks to help close the digital innovation divide by providing a safe co-design space for ITU members and other stakeholders to develop innovative strategies that accelerate digital transformation and the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. The design phase of iCody, with the support of the Telecommunication Regulatory Authority of the United Arab Emirates, was completed in December 2020. iCody will help connect the knowledge that ITU produces across our sectors to the problems that countries are facing to achieve digital transformation and I would like to recognize the UAE government for their support in the development of iCody. The piloting phase for iCody began in January 2021. In 2021 iCody featured an internal challenge bootcamp to explore innovative ways for ITU to better deliver its capacity development programs. Design thinking workshops in the Arab States region and in the Americas to help prioritize the regional priorities to be adopted at the World Telecommunication Development Conference, WTDC. The two-day iCody workshop provided an innovative way to iterate and crystallize regional priorities to prepare for the World Telecommunication Development Conference. In 2022 iCody will explore how it can further support innovation programs for ITU member states and other stakeholders across the world. Stay tuned, get connected, try new ideas, do things differently and join iCody.
