The Iberoamerican University Foundation (FUNIBER) will organize, on October 17 at 16:00 hours (CET), the webinar “The origins of telecommunications policies (1969-1984).”
The session will be given by Miguel López Coronado and is part of the Jean Monnet Chair “Telecommunications Policy in the EU and Information Society” held by the Universidad Europea del Atlántico (European University of the Atlantic) (UNEATLANTICO).
The decision of the Hague Summit in 1969 to address new policies, with the objective of a European Community, generated the need to act in the field of new information technologies, starting in the mid-1960s, with the first actions dating back to 1967 and the first Commission proposals in 1980.
The event also has the collaboration of the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de Puerto Rico (International Iberoamerican University) (UNIB), the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de México (International Iberoamerican University of Mexico) (UNINI Mexico), the Fundación Universitaria Internacional de Colombia (International University Foundation of Colombia) (UNINCOL), the Universidade Internacional do Cuanza (International University of Cuanza) (UNIC), and the Universidad de La Romana (University of La Romana) (UNIROMANA).
The conference is free and open to all those interested in the subject, and it will be broadcast live in each country where FUNIBER has presence. Broadcast schedules can be consulted at this link. To participate, it is necessary to register:
