Meeting of Advisory Committee on International Communications and 
Information Policy

    The Department of State's Advisory Committee on International 
Communications and Information Policy (ACICIP) will hold a public 
meeting on June 14, 2012 from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. in Room 647 of 
Annex Building 44 of the U.S. Department of State. The State Annex 44 
Building is located at 301 Fourth Street SW., Washington, DC 20547.
    The committee provides a formal channel for regular consultation 
and coordination on major economic, social and legal issues and 
problems in international communications and information policy, 
especially as these issues and problems involve users of information 
and communications services, providers of such services, technology 
research and development, foreign industrial and regulatory policy, the 
activities of international organizations with regard to communications 
and information, and developing country issues.
    The meeting will be led by ACICIP Chair Mr. Thomas Wheeler of Core 
Capital Partners and Ambassador Philip L. Verveer, U.S. Coordinator for 
International Communications and Information Policy. The meeting's 
agenda will include discussions pertaining to various upcoming 
international telecommunications meetings and conferences, as well as 
bilateral and multilateral meetings that have taken place recently. In 
addition, the Committee will discuss key issues of importance to U.S. 
communications policy interests, including: recent private sector 
advisory efforts focused on the information and communications 
technology (ICT) aspects of international disaster response; recent 
public-private efforts to provide training to international 
communications professionals and regulators from the developing world; 
and human rights and economic issues related to the Internet.
