BY THE US, GENERAL ACCOUNTING OFFICE

Report To The Director,

U.S. International Communication Agency






U.S. International Communication

Agency's Overseas Programs;

Some More Useful Than Others



The U.S. International Communication Agency--
the focal point of information programs abroad--
employs the same array of programs such as
American Participants, cultural events, films,
videotape recordings, and publications in about
125 countries. The Agency also presides over a
dwindling number of libraries and binational
cultural centers engaged in the teaching of
English.

GAO questions the proposition that each country
needs the same set of communication methods.
To promote economy and efficiency of opera-
tions, GAO recommends changes in the program-
ming methods used in the overseas missions as
well as improvements in the support provided to
the missions by Agency headquarters. GAO also
recommends greater attention to the running of
libraries and cultural centers abroad.
