The UPU Consultative Committee Puts Forward a Proposal
During its 24th assembly held in Geneva, the UPU Congress unanimously approved a proposal called: “Leveraging wider sector involvement to make development cooperation more effective and forward-looking”.
In particular, the Congress proposal request that all postal operators:
– Embrace cost-effective technologies that facilitate the secure collection of revenues
– Seek the expertise of the members of the Consultative Committee, the private sector body of the UPU when implementing these technologies
The development of partnerships with the private sector is also encouraged. This is the first time, since the UPU started to open up to the private sector in 2004 at its Bucharest Congress, that the UPU Congress approves a proposal originating from the wider sector in an area other than standardization.
