About the USC Center on Public Diplomacy at the Annenberg School
The USC Center on Public Diplomacy was established in August 2003 as a partnership between the Annenberg School for Communication and the School of International Relations at the University of Southern California. It is a joint research and professional training organization dedicated to furthering the study and practice of public diplomacy as it is practiced internationally.
Since its inception, the Center has become an ambitious and productive leader in the public diplomacy research and scholarship community. The Center has benefited from unique international, interdepartmental, bi-partisan support from the academic, corporate, governmental and public policy communities. And it has become the definitive go-to destination for practitioners and worldwide international leaders in public diplomacy, while pursuing an innovative and cutting-edge research agenda.
Vision Statement
The USC Center on Public Diplomacy Vision Statement, originally written in the summer of 2003, is being continually updated. This document serves as a template for the Center's vision, concept and development. With the field of public diplomacy itself evolving, we felt it appropriate to keep our own Vision in "draft" form. We welcome your comments. Click here to read the USC CPD Vision Statement (pdf).
