Building a Domestic Compact on Foreign Policy Through PD

There are volumes of research on cultural exchanges from the perspective of attendees. But what about host communities? 

On April 10th, 2019, CPD Director Jay Wang and CPD Visiting Scholar Katarzyna Pisarska joined us to unpack new research and frameworks for measuring the local impact of cultural exchanges.

Pisarska explored the phenomena of public diplomacy’s domestic dimension—a government’s ability to engage its own society in foreign policy practices through information, cooperation and identity-defining. She shared her research on a comparative analysis of public diplomacy's domestic dimension in Australia, Norway and the U.S. based on more than 80 interviews.

Wang discussed CPD's pioneering work on capturing and estimating the impact of cultural exchanges on host communities. He shared how to measure various forms of "capital"—knowledge, cultural, social, civic—and takeaways for improving and innovating public diplomacy efforts of mutual understanding.
