World Telecommunication Day commemorates the founding of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the signing of the first International Telegraph Convention in 1865.
World Information Day highlights the importance of information technology and the wide range of issues raised by the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS).
In November 2006, both the days came together to celebrate annually by organising appropriate programmes.
