CPD Forum: Global Leadership in Public Diplomacy

CPD Forum on Public Diplomacy
Exactly 50 years ago, distinguished American diplomat Edmund Gullion coined the term “public diplomacy” to specifically denote coordinated governmental engagement with foreign publics. Since then, the concept of public diplomacy has become broadened and more expansive. 
Established in 2003 to serve as a leading resource for public diplomacy scholars and practitioners, the USC Center on Public Diplomacy has continued to contribute significantly through its research, analysis, training and public programming to discussions about the future of this ever-evolving, increasingly relevant form of global engagement. The Center is pleased to host a summit, “Global Leadership in Public Diplomacy,” in Washington DC at the United States Institute of Peace from 8:30am to 1:00pm.  
Panels at the forum will include:
  • Advancing International Advocacy in the Digital Age
  • Cultural Diplomacy: What Next?
  • Bridging the Study-Practice Gap
  • Next Frontiers of Public Diplomacy: Technology and Talent
