Target 1: Making broadband policy universal.
By 2015, all countries should have a national broadband plan or strategy or include broadband in their Universal Access / Service Definitions.
> Action to enhance broadband access is more likely when there is a national broadband plan or strategy, or when broadband is included in countries’ Universal Access / Service (UAS) definitions.
> In 2010, out of 144 developing countries, 99 had a UAS definition. Of those, 49 had included Internet dial-up and 36 had included broadband.
> Five years earlier, 21 developing countries had Internet dial-up as part of their UAS definition and only 1 country had included broadband.
