21st Century Statecraft Initiative
The 21st Century Statecraft Initiative is a U.S. diplomatic approach that uses technology and social media to enhance international relations and engage with global audiences. Launched during the Obama administration, it recognizes the importance of digital tools in diplomacy, allowing governments to connect with citizens, promote democratic values, and counter misinformation. By fostering online collaboration and dialogue, the initiative aims to address contemporary global challenges, such as cybersecurity and climate change, while encouraging more inclusive and participatory foreign policy.
