City & State Diplomacy Toolkit
This toolkit of city and state diplomacy briefs “respond to a lack of readily available resources and knowledge,” leveraging examples to provide actionable information for local actors looking to engage on global issues.
The briefs cover a range of themes, including capacity building, democracy, human rights, economic competitiveness, and more. Some examples of the topics covered include:
-How the U.S. Department of State supports international engagement and what services it offers to cities and states
-Engaging U.S. citizens and communities in diplomacy
-Statewide collaboration for global engagement in North Carolina
-An innovation from Dallas: the Mayor’s International Advisory Council composed of retired senior diplomats living in the city
The toolkit is updated on a rolling basis.
