The Secretary's Office of Global Partnerships S/GP) is the entry point for collaboration between the U.S. Department of State, the public and private sectors, and civil society. Launched in 2009, S/GP aims to strengthen and deepen U.S. diplomacy and development around the world through partnerships that leverage the creativity, innovation, and core business resources of partners for greater impact. The Special Representative for Global Partnerships is Andrew O'Brien. Under the leadership of Secretary of State John Kerry, S/GP works with partners across sectors, industries, and borders to promote economic growth and opportunity; to invest in the well-being of people from all walks of life; and to make democracy serve every citizen more effectively and justly. S/GP's mission is to build public-private partnerships that strengthen diplomacy and development outcomes by serving as: * Convener, bringing together people from across regions and sectors to work together on issues of common interest. * Catalyst, launching new projects, actively seeking new solutions, and providing vital training and technical assistance to facilitate additional projects. * Collaborator, working closely with our partners to plan and implement projects while avoiding duplication, learning from each other, and maximizing our impact by looking for best practices. * Cultivator, nurturing innovative new partnerships by providing the space, access to networks and capital, and mentoring assistance to turn a good idea into reality. ==History== In December 2007, the Global Partnerships Center (GPC) was established to lead efforts to advance the use of results-based public-private partnerships as a mainstream tool for U.S. diplomacy. The cornerstone of this effort was the Global Partnership Clearinghouse, the first-ever database of multi-sector partnerships created under Chief of Mission authority. On April 22, 2009, former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, told the Global Philanthropy Forum that “the State Department is opening its doors to a new generation of public-private partnerships” with foundations, businesses, non-governmental organizations, universities, and faith communities through her new Global Partnership Initiative. The GPC subsequently transitioned into GPI and the office was placed under the Secretary's Office (S). Secretary Clinton has called for the United States to “lead by inducing greater cooperation among a greater number of actors and reducing competition, tilting the balance away from a multi-polar world and toward a multi-partner world,” as she described at the Council on Foreign Relations. In 2014, the office modified its name to the Office of Global Partnerships (S/GP). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Secretary of State's Office of Global Partnerships」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
