NCIV Network News

Volume XLVIII - Number 1 - January/February 2008

The mission of NCIV is to promote excellence
in citizen diplomacy.

Citizen diplomacy is the concept that, in a vibrant democracy, the individual citizen has the right, even the responsibility, to help shape foreign relations.

The NCIV Network News is a monthly publication of the National Council for International Visitors. NCIV is pleased to acknowledge that this publication is funded in part by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs of the U.S. Department of State under the authority of the Fulbright-Hays Act of 1961.
