At the request of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and following the invitation of INACOM - Instituto Angolano das Comunicações (Angolan Communications Institute), ANACOM participated in a training action on statistical indicators for information and communication technologies (ICT) which took place between 26 and 29 March 2019, in Luanda (Angola).
Carla Silveira, from the Department of Cooperation and Development of the External Relations Department of ANACOM, participated as a speaker in the panels “The need for internationally comparable ICT statistics”, “The ICT Development Index (IDI)”, “Supply side indicators” and “ICT Price Index”.
This was intended to provide market participants with information on how to respond to requests for statistical indicators made by regulators and, indirectly, by the ITU, as well as to analyse methods for obtaining comparable, reliable and robust ICT statistical information.
The training action was attended by around 60 trainees representing Angolan operators and regulators from certain countries of the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries (CPLP), namely Cape Verde, Guinea Bissau, Mozambique and Sao Tome and Principe.
