As a plenipotentiary meeting, Congress plays a vital role in defining the UPU’s strategic direction, regulatory framework, and development priorities for the next four years. Somasundram explains what it takes to coordinate this process, from managing the flow of proposals submitted by member countries to organizing outreach that ensures informed and active participation.
