Pacific Islands Telecommunication Association

Overview

The primary goals of PITA activities are to facilitate for, represent and achieve the desired outcomes of the collective member needs and interests, to present opportunities to meet these outcomes and objectives of PITA, and help raise the minimum critical mass for human capacity with member organisations to achieve these outcomes and objectives.

With the relenting climate change and the drive to provide broadband for all, to realise smart islands and digital societies, the topic of disaster readiness, network resilience & continuity, cyber security and internet safety have become equal priority to bringing ubiquitous and affordable broadband access to everyone, accelerate the digital adoption and transformation, and last but not the least, to achieve the minimum critical mass for the human capacity¹ across the Pacific Island members,

The activities of PITA revolve around the following principles

• Goals and needs that determine the Annual work plans
• Accommodate requests that PITA Members may raise at any time of the year
• Be open to collaboration and partnership with organisations having common goals in the Pacific

PITA maintains an office located in Suva, Fiji, and operates from this registered office as its head office.
