Evolution of Public Diplomacy One Mutation at a Time
The Public Diplomacy Council has taken on some outstanding new members over the last few months.
As the national organization dedicated to the advancement of the public diplomacy profession, we believe that effective public diplomacy is indispensable to successful national security. For that reason, the Council promotes improved professional practice, academic study of the field, and responsible advocacy on behalf of public diplomacy. The Council’s strength is in members who represent a rich cross-section of the individuals, associations, and organizations engaged in and knowledgeable about public diplomacy.
Here are some of our newest members.
