increase the understanding of, and support for, these same activities. 
The ACPD conducts research that provides honest assessments of public 
diplomacy efforts, and disseminates findings through reports, white 
papers, and other publications. It also holds public symposiums that 
generate informed discussions on public diplomacy issues and events.
