The Universal Postal Union’s World Strategy Conference and Regional Strategy Conferences in 2015 will help shape the global postal sector's future roadmap.

The events enable UPU member countries and stakeholders to take stock of the progress made in achieving the Doha Postal Strategy, the postal sector’s current four-year roadmap.

The debates will also help identify the trends and issues that should shape the next world postal strategy to be presented at the Istanbul Postal Congress in 2016.

Set against the backdrop of worldwide economic uncertainly, coupled with continuous change in the communications sector, the conferences will explore  major changes that continue to transform the acquisition and dissemination of information and knowledge.

They will also discuss how customers, businesses and governments look at social, economic and business practices, and examine the extraordinary opportunities being opened up in the communications sector, particularly for postal services.
