As part of its commitment to building the field of public diplomacy, CPD conducts research into thematic areas of perennial interest and identifies emerging trends deserving of further scholarship. We welcome research proposals that match these initiatives. To this end, each year scholars are invited to apply for the non-residential CPD Research Fellowship program. All in-house research and related CPD events are designed to bridge the gap between academic and professional work in these areas.
The USC Center on Public Diplomacy facilitates research opportunities through its CPD Research Fellowship Program, Visiting and Contributing Scholars, Research Internship programs and Dissertation Grants. Research projects typically yield special reports, CPD Blogs, dedicated issues of CPD Perspectives and policy briefs.
PD Hub is the world’s largest Online Library of public diplomacy scholarship and resources, including books, articles, speeches, news, blog posts, videos and podcasts. Peruse our expanding list of PD Organizations around the world, our rich database of Multimedia resources and review annotated Bibliographies from a number of sources.
