Description: The U.S. Department of State Subnational Diplomacy Unit announces an opportunity for organizations to submit applications to carry out logistics and planning in organizing an in-person Symposium on Strategic Subnational Diplomacy for subnational leaders from Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, U.K., and U.S. The Symposium seeks to increase the benefits subnational governments gain from foreign engagement while mitigating potential risks, such as political interference, unfair economic practices, and challenges to rule of law. The Symposium is a new program that seeks to foster a conversation among state, regional, and municipal staffers on strategic foreign engagement, including skills to address foreign malign influence, while creating linkages amongst leaders from like-minded countries.
