WEBCHAT

The State Department's Bureau of International Information Programs (IIP) seeks to put international audiences in touch with U.S. experts on a wide variety of topics through internet chat sessions.
 
Since June 2005, IIP has held many interactive Internet chats on such diverse topics as Uzbekistan, environmental protection, human rights, U.S. foreign aid, American cuisine, Muslim life in America, and the future of the Internet.
