The Advisory Group on Public Diplomacy in the Arab and Muslim World is scheduled to issue a report to Congress and to the White House on October 1, 2003. While details have not yet been released, the report is expected to have an important impact on the way the United States communicates with Arab and Muslim nations. At this luncheon event, the chairman of the advisory group, Edward P. Djerejian, and one of its members, James K. Glassman of AEI, will present the findings and answer questions from panelists and the audience. Djerejian is the former U.S. ambassador to both Syria and Israel and assistant secretary of state for near eastern affairs under Presidents George H. W. Bush and Bill Clinton. He is also director of the James A. Baker III Institute at Rice University, which is cosponsoring the event with AEI.
