 Good Afternoon!



It’s a busy time in the State Department’s Office of International
Communications and Information Policy (CIP) as the countdown to Busan
continues.  We’d like to share with you two recent DipNote blog articles as
well as a CSPAN video:



   - Supporting an Inclusive and Open Internet
   <http://blogs.state.gov/stories/2014/09/25/supporting-inclusive-and-open-internet>,
   by Ambassador Daniel Sepulveda, Coordinator Christopher Painter, and Deputy
   Assistant Secretary Scott Busby, highlights the U.S. government’s
   commitment to preserving an Open Internet, and to continuing to evolve its
   governance towards an increasingly inclusive system that enables and
   empowers individuals and innovation worldwide.



   - Preparing for Busan
   <http://blogs.state.gov/stories/2014/09/17/preparing-busan-regional-unity-inter-american-proposals-2014-international>,
   by Ambassador Sepulveda, discusses U.S. engagement with regional partners
   at the recent International Telecommunications Union (ITU) Regional
   Preparatory Meeting in Buenos Aires.



   - Ambassador Sepulveda also spoke yesterday at a Brookings panel event
   on the topic, “Is the Internet Starting to Fracture?”  Watch the CSPAN
   video

As always, we encourage you to follow CIP on EB’s Facebook  and Twitter
accounts available here <http://www.state.gov/e/eb/>.



Thanks for reading.  Please respond to this email directly (

Best Regards,
