Report of the Public Diplomacy and World Public Opinion Forum. Washington, D.C., 2006, 76 p.The Public Diplomacy and World Public Opinion Forum evolved out of a desire to provide a platform for cross-fertilization between academics, practitioners and public opinion pollsters. The Forum took place between April 9-11, 2006 in Washington D.C. and was co-chaired by Geoffrey Cowan, Dean of the Annenberg School; Joshua Fouts, Executive Director of the Center on Public Diplomacy; and Andrew Kohut, President of the Pew Research Center. Over these three days, pollsters, academics, and practitioners from around the world met in a series of seven sessions. This executive summary provides an overview of the key themes and recommendations that evolved out of these discussions.Contents
