Other Information:

Flagship Initiatives To promote transparency, participation and collaboration with the public, the Department is currently undertaking two new initiatives, Virtual Student Foreign Service and HumanRights.gov. Both initiatives are priorities of Secretary Clinton and represent innovative ways of engaging the US public and other stakeholders to further the US diplomatic mission. In addition to providing direct results, these two initiatives will also serve as demonstration projects. We will assess their effectiveness and seek to generalize lessons learned for applicability to future Open Government initiatives.
