The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) has 3 sectors. The Radiocommunication sector (ITU-R) deals with all systems that make use of radio waves. The Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is dealing with international tariffs, treaties and standardization of wired communicated systems. The Study Group 7 (SG 7) is called Science services and deals with Space research, Radio Astronomy and Earth Observation and Meteorological Systems, and its Working Party 7A deals with all Standard Frequency and Time Signal (SFTS) emissions and transfers, also by satellite and other means.

UN Women was established by GA Resolution 64/289, and became operational on the 1st of January 2011. Its vision is of a world where women and men have equal opportunities and capacities, where women are empowered and where principles of gender equality are firmly embedded in all efforts to advance development, peace and security. The fundamental objective of UN Women is to enhance national capacity and ownership to enable national partners to formulate gender responsive laws and policies and to scale up successful strategies to deliver on national commitments to gender equality.
