DEPARTMENT OF STATE
[Public Notice: 9320]
Advisory Committee on Public-Private Partnerships; Notice of the
Intent To Establish an Advisory Committee
This is notice of the intent to establish the Advisory Committee on
Public-Private Partnerships. The Committee will serve the United States
government in a solely advisory capacity concerning the development of
public-private partnerships that promote shared value with the private
sector worldwide. Functions will include, but will not be limited to,
providing information and advice on how the Department of State can
effectively explore and form public-private partnerships with the
private sector on foreign policy issues, and reviewing and recommending
public-private partnership opportunities for advancing foreign policy
objectives. The Department of State affirms that establishment of the
Committee is necessary and in the public interest.
The Committee will consult with other interested parties, agencies,
and interagency committees and groups of the United States Government,
foreign governments, and with national and international private sector
organizations and individuals, as the Department of State and the
Committee decides are necessary or desirable.
The Committee will be comprised of up to twenty-five distinguished
citizens from the private sector, including leaders of for-profit
businesses who are in a senior management role or who lead corporate
social responsibility units; academics, scientists and innovators;
diaspora, faith-based and community organizations; foundations and
philanthropic organizations; and non-governmental organizations,
providing the Secretary with a fresh perspective and insight apart from
and independent of the State Department organization. It will not
perform the function of any existing Department staff or committee.
For further information, please contact the Committee's Designated
Federal Officer, Thomas Debass, at [email protected].
Dated: October 14, 2015.
Thomas Debass,
Deputy Special Representative for Global Partnerships, Department of
State.
