The 9th Meeting of the Expert Group on ICT Household Indicators (EGH) took place virtually on 15 and 16 September 2021. The meeting was organized by the Telecommunication Development Bureau (BDT) of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The EGH meeting was held back-to-back with the 12th Meeting of the Expert Group on Telecommunication/ICT Indicators (EGTI), which also took place virtually from 13 to 15 September 2021. A joint EGTI-EGH session was held on 15 September 2021.
