International Broadcasting Bureau

The International Broadcasting Bureau (IBB) was a U.S. government organization responsible for managing and supporting broadcasts that promote American perspectives and information worldwide. It oversaw networks like Voice of America (VOA) and other international radio and digital broadcasts, aiming to inform and connect global audiences. In 2018, the IBB was integrated into the Broadcasting Board of Governors, now known as the U.S. Agency for Global Media, which continues to oversee U.S. international broadcasting efforts. The IBB's role was essential in providing independent news and fostering understanding across cultures through official U.S. messaging.
