The Diplomatic Courier Announces Significant New Global Partners and New Advisory Board Member

July 28, 2008: Washington, DC – Today, the Diplomatic Courier is pleased to announce a significant expansion of its editorial base through partnerships with the Prague-based news organization Newstin (Czech Republic), the Zurich-based International Relations and Security Network (Switzerland), and the California-based Pacific Research Institute (United States).

“The addition of these new partners is significant for the Courier,” said Advisory Board Chairman Admiral Sir Ian Forbes, former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Transformation for NATO. “Viewed in parallel with Lisa Gable joining the Editorial Board, it vividly demonstrates the expanding reach and influence of the publication’s important portfolio in a globalised world.” 

“As more young people define themselves as “global citizens”, it is important to optimize the reach of these established networks of thought leaders and create a community that enables younger thinkers to participate in the debate and secure credentials that will accelerate their careers”, said Lisa Guillermin Gable, former U.S. Ambassador to the Aichi World EXPO 2005 who has recently joined the Diplomatic Courier board to expand its reach.

“In a world that is undergoing such rapid political and economic change, engaging young people in decision-making as partners in diplomacy, democracy, and development, is the Diplomatic Courier’s raison d’être” said Editor-in-Chief Ana Carcani Rold. “We are pleased to build relationships with leading organizations that allow us to identify and promote young leaders and are thrilled that Lisa Gable will lead those efforts in Washington.”
