| #### Message From the Secretary                                       |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

![](media/image2.png){width="1.5625in" height="1.6458333333333333in"}In
the years ahead, America's greatest opportunity is to utilize our
position of strength to create a world that favors human freedom. This
world of growing freedom serves American long-term interests, reflects
enduring American ideals, and unites American allies and partners. We
strive to help preserve this peace by building good relations among
nations around the world and we extend this peace by encouraging free
and open societies on every continent.

In the current fight against terrorism, the United States ultimately
defends this peace by opposing and preventing violence by terrorist and
outlaw regimes. Our nation will not win it solely or even primarily
through military might, but in using every instrument of national
power---diplomatic, economic, law enforcement, financial, informational,
intelligence, and military. Progress will come through the patient
accumulation of successes---some seen, some unseen. The Department of
State has been proud to contribute to several early successes. We
provided the diplomatic tools that marshaled and maintain a global
anti-terrorism coalition, established an interim governing authority in
a liberated Afghanistan, and continue to act as a catalyst in its
ongoing reconstruction and quest for stability.

As we continue to deny terrorists and their allies the means to enact
their hatred, we have an unprecedented opportunity to help build the
peace. In our broader foreign policy agenda, the Department seeks to
foster democracy and human rights around the world. We work to enact
free trade agreements that can bring increased economic prosperity both
at home and abroad. The Department works to continuously support our
allies in the Atlantic and the Pacific and strengthen our relationships
with partners such as Russia while deepening the conversation with China
and other nations that agree to promote a world that favors human
freedom. Through such means as the Millennium Challenge Account, the
Department advances common global interests to ensure accountable
humanitarian assistance, improved health, and a sustainable environment.

Continuing to meet our foreign policy priorities requires a Department
that can look around the corner, anticipating the challenges ahead. We
must be able to plan for the next crisis rather than react to its
impact. This foresight requires a culture that values planning and an
organization committed to its execution. We must state our priorities
and targets, being praised when we exceed our goals, and held
accountable when we fall short.

In the Fiscal Year 2004 Performance Plan, the Department of State
describes its accomplishments to date and looks ahead to what we intend
to achieve in the coming years. As this document accompanies our Fiscal
Year 2004 budget, we invite the American public's attention to
understand the benefit the men and women of the Department strive each
day to achieve on behalf of the American public.

Colin L. Powell

| #### Introduction                                                     |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

### Purpose of Plan

The Department of State Fiscal Year 2004 Performance Plan (the Plan),
submitted to the President, the Congress, and the American public
describes what the Department plans to accomplish to achieve its
mission, vision, and long-term strategic goals.

### Structure of Plan

The Plan is divided into the following seven sections:

1.  **[Benefit to the American Public]{.underline}:** This section
    summarizes the benefits provided to the American people through
    pursuit of each of the Department's twelve strategic goals.

2.  **[Major Crosscutting Efforts:]{.underline}** This section describes
    the major issues on which the Department works with other agencies
    to resolve.

3.  **[Management Landscape]{.underline}:** This section describes the
    Department's major management priorities including the following:

-   [**President's** **Management Agenda (PMA)
    Initiatives**]{.underline}**:** This section provides an update as
    to how the Department is addressing the PMA initiatives designed to
    create a results-oriented federal government.

-   **[Management Challenges]{.underline}**: The Government Accounting
    Office and the Department's Office of the Inspector General have
    identified Management Challenges that specify areas where the
    Department needs to improve. This section describes the challenges
    and the actions that the Department has initiated to make the
    necessary improvements.

4.  **[Performance Management Methodology]{.underline}**: This section
    describes the performance management methodology or approach used by
    the Department.

5.  **[New Strategic Planning Framework]{.underline}**: This section
    presents the Department's new strategic planning framework that
    responds more effectively to the changing international environment
    and brings greater clarity, direction, and alignment between its
    vision and overall priorities.

6.  **[Strategic Goal Chapters]{.underline}:** Each of the Department's
    twelve strategic goals is presented in separate chapters organized
    as follows:

-   [Public Benefit]{.underline}: This summarizes how the strategic goal
    benefits the American people.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   [Annual Performance Goals]{.underline}: Annual performance goals
    represent the Department's priorities and what it wants to achieve
    during FY 2004. Each annual performance goal contains specific
    indicators used to measure progress and targets that represent the
    specific desired level of performance to be achieved.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   [Verification and Validation]{.underline}: This explains how the
    results data used to measure performance will be verified and
    validated.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   [Crosscutting Activities]{.underline}: This describes what
    activities the Department undertakes with other public or private
    sector entities to achieve a given annual performance goal.

7.  **[Resources by Strategic Goal]{.underline}**: The final section of
    the Plan depicts the resources and staffing by strategic goal,
    thereby linking resources to program performance objectives. This
    section is broken into two separate charts. The first chart depicts
    the Appropriation Act resources and the second the Foreign
    Operations resources.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| #### Benefit to the American Public                                   |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

As the lead advocate for U.S. policies with foreign governments and
international organizations, the Department stands in the front lines of
America's national security. Diplomacy remains the primary tool to
maintain and strengthen America's bilateral and multilateral
relationships. Diplomacy, however, is a product inherently difficult to
measure. How does one quantify the benefits of something that has never
occurred? Lives saved because of battles that were never fought,
diseases that were never contracted, or famine that was never endured
all inherently benefit the United States and echo the system of values
it strives to present to the world.

Human suffering resulting from conflicts and natural disasters can lead
to instability in individual countries and entire regions, eventually,
as we have seen, redounding to the detriment of the United States. The
Department and USAID take the lead in diplomatic efforts to prevent or
alleviate such suffering. The Department also works to protect the
nation by promoting regional stability, combating the proliferation of
weapons of mass destruction, and countering international terrorism from
threatening vital U.S. interests at home and abroad. In the wake of the
events of 9/11, this work has even greater importance.

The Department continually utilizes its resources and influence to
assist Americans who travel and live abroad. The Department issues
United States passports, facilitates overseas voting in federal
elections, evacuates Americans from conflict areas, and deters the entry
into the United States of those who seek to threaten the nation, while
approving the entry of qualified foreigners. The Department has
important homeland security responsibilities, such as combating visa and
passport fraud, and protecting foreign diplomats in the United States so
that terrorists do not hinder the day-to-day conduct of diplomacy.

The work of the Department advances sustainable development and
solutions to global problems that cannot be solved by any one nation.
The Department works diligently to support the spread and adoption of
democratic ideals worldwide, which not only promote such fundamental
American values as religious freedom and worker rights, but also help
create a more secure, stable, and prosperous world economy. In addition
to contributing to American prosperity, the opening of foreign markets
to U.S. goods and services results in higher standards of living and the
reduction of poverty in other countries. The Department works with other
countries to promote a sustainable global environment, a healthy world
population, effective migration systems, and strong international health
capabilities, thus enhancing American security and protecting the United
States from the effects of environmental degradation and deadly disease
in an increasingly interconnected world.

The Department's promotion of international understanding should result
in increased foreign understanding of American values. Since
international understanding is a two-way street, not only will
foreigners come to understand, if not accept, American values, but
Americans will gain greater understanding of foreign cultures and
values.

To maintain the U.S. role as a world leader in the twenty-first century,
the Department must have sufficient resources to attract and retain its
employees, America's foreign policy representatives. The Department also
must have the infrastructure and operating capacities to enable its
employees to pursue policy objectives. By strengthening the Department's
diplomatic and programmatic capabilities, all Americans will benefit.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| #### Major Crosscutting Efforts                                       |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

Diplomatic problems frequently do not fall entirely within the scope of
only one of the Department's geographic or functional bureaus. The
Department addresses such crosscutting issues through collaboration
among its bureaus and/or other USG agencies.

### The War on Terrorism 

The events of 9/11 have made combating international terrorism the key
USG priority. The Department is therefore making a major effort to
conform to the new needs of the war on terrorism. Following the strong
emphasis of the President and the Secretary, a large number of bureaus,
from the Office of the Coordinator for Counterterrorism to Diplomatic
Security to Consular Affairs (CA), the Bureau of Economic and Business
Affairs (EB), and the regional bureaus, are reorienting their priorities
to fit new realities. In Afghanistan, the Bureau of South Asian Affairs
has worked with EB, the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law
Enforcement Affairs and the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor
to help build a new, democratic government committed to opposing
terrorism. In the countries of the former Soviet Union, the Bureau of
Arms Control and the Bureau of Nonproliferation have worked with the
Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs to focus attention on
controlling nuclear material.

On a broader scale, the Department also has cooperated with other
agencies to combat terrorism. Coordinating with the Department of
Justice and the FBI, CA has worked to strengthen its visa screening to
prevent terrorists from entering the United States. The Department also
has combined its efforts with those of the military to establish key
bases and build essential alliances. The Department will continue to
make the necessary internal adjustments required to fight terrorism
effectively.

### Public Diplomacy

The Office of the Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and related
bureaus are working to augment the international standing of the United
States and its polices. In the wake of the events of 9/11, the need for
a unified and positive American message has never been as critical as it
is today.

The Department is therefore expanding the scope of public diplomacy by
identifying audiences, preparing more appropriate programs, and
maximizing resources among the Department's domestic bureaus and
overseas posts. The Department is working closely with the White House
Office of Global Communications and other agencies to promote American
values and interests worldwide. To this end, the Department is engaging
a broader and younger audience worldwide to augment America's messages
to foreign audiences. In addition, the Department is utilizing more
channels of communication to expand the impact of activities and
audience reach. The Department's public diplomacy efforts work in
conjunction with those of other USG agencies to communicate American
beliefs, values, and goals.

### Homeland Security

The Department is on the frontlines of working to protect homeland
security. Since the events of 9/11, the Department has taken steps to
coordinate with overall U.S. border security efforts more effectively.
Department consular officers at more than 200 overseas posts adjudicate
the majority of visa applications of those who seek entry into the
United States. Among these applicants are those who wish to harm the
United States, as shown by the events of 9/11. The Department
strengthened its visa screening system, by vastly increasing the size of
its name check database, conducting more visa interviews, and
instituting interagency clearances for additional categories of
applicants from specific countries. The Department has provided U.S.
ports of entry with real-time access to visa issuance data and has
worked closely with the Departments of Homeland Security and Justice,
the intelligence community, the FBI, and other USG agencies on other
border-security issues.

The Department also works with domestic and international law
enforcement organizations to minimize the negative impact of drugs and
crime on American citizens. The Bureaus of Consular Affairs and
Diplomatic Security play a critical role in homeland security efforts to
control visa and passport fraud. The Department is intent upon ensuring
that its visa system is strong and secure, while allowing and
encouraging qualified applicants to come to the United States.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
| #### The Management Landscape                                         |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

To achieve the strategic goals and ultimately provide benefit to the
American public, the Department must have an effective organizational
structure, established management capabilities, and core infrastructure
in place to ensure the diplomatic readiness of the entire Department.
Unlike other federal agencies, this capability is made increasingly
complex by the Department's presence in more than 150 countries.
Nevertheless, the Secretary and the entire leadership team always have
maintained that better management is a critical element in the
Department's overall effectiveness and remain committed to successful
implementation of all its management initiatives.

While the Department has always been committed to success on a broad
range of management priorities, the President's Management Agenda (PMA)
has focused the Department's efforts across five government-wide
initiatives to improve management.

Management also is focusing on several other key priorities, three of
which are depicted below.

### The President's Management Agenda 

In August 2001, President Bush outlined the President's Management
Agenda (PMA) which focuses on five initiatives designed to improve USG
management. According to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the
Department made progress on each of the five President's Management
Agenda (PMA) initiatives. As of March 2003, the Department achieved
three "green" and two "yellow" scores for progress on implementation.
With respect to overall status, the Department has made improvements in
several areas, even though the overall scores for status remain "red."
During FY 2004, the Department will continue its efforts to address the
PMA initiatives.

| #### Performance Management Methodology                               |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

The Department is committed to and focused on how best to utilize the
funds it receives from Congress\
- the tax dollars of American citizens - to produce successful results.
To do so, the Department utilizes a five-tiered performance management
methodology, as depicted in the pyramid at the bottom of the page. Each
of the components of the pyramid are explained below:

***Strategic Objectives*** These typically represent an organizing layer
between the mission statement and the strategic goals, with related
strategic goals grouped under a specific strategic objective.

***Strategic Goals*** These describe the Department's long-term goals as
detailed in its Strategic Plan.

***Annual Performance Goals*** These describe the desired outcomes the
Department is planning to achieve during a given year. Achieving all of
the annual performance goals would provide the outcomes necessary to
reach the strategic goal. The Department has thirty-eight annual
performance goals for FY 2004.

***Performance Indicators*** These are values or characteristics that
the Department utilizes to measure progress achieved towards stated
annual performance goals. The indicators are drawn from bureaus and
mission performance plans.

***Performance Targets*** These are the expressions of desired
performance levels or specific desired results targeted for a given
fiscal year. Achievement of targets defines success. Where possible,
targets are expressed in quantifiable terms.

| #### Strategic Planning Framework                                     |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

Consistent with its performance management methodology shown on the
opposite page, the Department will focus its work around twelve
strategic goals that capture both the breadth of its mission and its
specific responsibilities. The FY 2004 Performance Plan is the first
performance plan structured around this new framework which reflects
policy and functional collaboration between USAID and the Department
towards achieving common goals.

The framework brings greater clarity, direction, and alignment among the
Department's vision, mission, and overall priorities. In this context,
the Department reduced the number of its strategic goals from twenty to
twelve, centered around four core strategic objectives:

-   **Protect the Nation**

-   **Advance Sustainable Development and Global Interests**

-   **Promote International Understanding**

-   **Strengthen Diplomatic and Program Capabilities**

The following pages show each of the Department's four Strategic
Objectives with their corresponding Strategic Goals and FY 2004 Annual
Performance Goals.

The events of 9/11 demonstrated the extent of the threat posed by
international terrorism to the United States and U.S. citizens, both at
home and abroad. Al-Qaeda is present in more than sixty countries;
several hundred affiliates are suspected to be in the United States
alone. The American people are painfully aware of the importance of USG
efforts to combat international terrorism. In the wake of the events of
9/11, the United States has launched a campaign against terrorism.
Although the war on terrorism began at home, the Department has taken
the struggle worldwide. The Secretary and senior Department officials
have traveled to every corner of the globe to develop and sustain a
coalition to fight terrorism on all fronts -- diplomatic, military,
intelligence, law enforcement, and financial. The Department recognizes
the need to combat terrorist networks where they exist and operate via
the worldwide cooperation and coordination afforded by our coalition
partners. Efforts thus far have resulted in assistance from more than
180 states and territories in identifying, disrupting, and destroying
international terrorist organizations; the worldwide capture of over
3,000 terrorist suspects; and the blocking of\
\$120 million of terrorists' assets by over 160 foreign governments.
Through its proven ability to affect change and execute USG policy
abroad, the Department is an important leader in the war on terrorism.

The Department engages with foreign governments to ensure that they have
the political will to take strong, decisive action against terrorism.
While governments may have the political will to combat terrorism, they
often lack the capability to act effectively. The Department's training
and assistance programs help other states build the capacity of their
intelligence, law enforcement, and military communities to defeat
terrorists operating on their soil. At home, the Department has taken
unprecedented action to coordinate all training and assistance provided
by USG agencies. As the lead federal agency to respond to
terrorist-related incidents overseas, the Department has maintained its
readiness to respond to international terrorist-related incidents
affecting U.S. interests. The Department's efforts not only ensure the
safety of Americans abroad, but bolster the security of the U.S.
homeland by effectively making the borders of America's friends and
allies the first line of defense against terrorists.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

![](media/image6.wmf){width="2.9791338582677165in"
height="1.9956692913385827in"}The United States relies on its foreign
partners to protect U.S. citizens and interests overseas and prevent
terrorists from reaching the U.S. homeland. The Department expects that
its continued bilateral engagement with key partners will ensure that
counterterrorism remains at the top of the international political
agenda in 2004. Multilateral engagement with regional organizations such
as the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum, the European
Union (EU), the Organization of American States (OAS), the Association
of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), and the Arab League will ensure that
these organizations continue to press member states for action and
coordination on counterterrorism.

The Department also expects that other states will have greater capacity
to counter terrorism on their soil in 2004 due to Department-provided
counterterrorism training and technical assistance. Training and
technical assistance programs augment the capability of recipient states
to take strong, decisive action against terrorism by providing valuable
skills, relevant support equipment and technical advice. In 2004, the
United States will serve as President of the G-8. The Department expects
that its chairmanship of the Counterterrorism (Rome) Experts Group will
improve counterterrorism coordination and influence foreign partners
having advanced counterterrorism skills to participate more in the
capacity building effort.

By 2004, Colombia will have a strengthened capacity to conduct
counterterrorist operations against the three foreign terrorist
organizations (FTO) operating in its territory. The Southern Cone of
South America, through the "3+1" mechanism (Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay,
plus the United States), will be increasingly able to counter financial
flows to terrorists in the region and will be less attractive as a safe
haven for such illicit activities. In addition, the Department expects
the Inter-American Committee on Counterterrorism (CICTE) to strengthen
its leadership in the region and that the organization be viewed as a
model for regional counterterrorism efforts.

Through Department-coordinated technical assistance, the countries on
the Arabian Peninsula will be better prepared to stop the financing of
terrorism. The Department also expects that throughout the Middle East,
the close operational coordination among U.S. embassies will result in
the capture of terrorists.

In East Asia, a dedicated counterterrorism police unit will be
operational in Indonesia, a regional counterterrorism center will be
established in Malaysia, and assistance to the region, particularly
Indonesia, will be coordinated among primary donors. The police and
security forces of the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Thailand
will be able to conduct more effective counterterrorism operations, and
nations throughout the region will have new or enhanced legislation to
strengthen the legal basis for counterterrorist actions and related
terrorist finance and money laundering investigations.

Due to the considerable amount of Department-sponsored training, the
Caucasus and Central Asian states will have greater capacity to protect
key sites (e.g., airports and government buildings), investigate
terrorist incidents, and protect their borders from criminal and
terrorist incursions. Moreover, the Georgia Train and Equip Program
(GTEP) will bolster the Georgian Government's ability to go after
terrorist elements in the Pankisi Gorge.

In South Asia, Pakistan, through its newly established National
Counterterrorism Unit, will have a more thorough and coordinated
approach to thwarting terrorist activities. Afghanistan will continue to
be an active partner in fighting remnants of the Taliban and al-Qaeda on
its territory. Through the Department's continued engagement with India,
India will play a constructive role in resolving terrorist insurgencies
in Nepal and Sri Lanka.

By 2004, the Department hopes to reduce the attractiveness of many
African countries as potential terrorist transit points, safe havens, or
targets. As recipients of Department-provided training courses, Kenya,
Djibouti, and Ethiopia should exhibit higher levels of specialized
skills to combat terrorism more effectively. Likewise, border security
is expected to improve in Niger, Chad, Mali, and Mauritania.

In the multilateral arena, the Department expects to make significant
progress in encouraging states to take action to implement UN Security
Council Resolution (UNSCR) 1373, which imposes binding obligations on
all states to suppress and prevent terrorist financing, improve border
controls, enhance information sharing and law enforcement cooperation,
suppress terrorist recruitment, and deny terrorists safe haven.

By 2004, it is anticipated that the UN Counterterrorism Committee (CTC)
will have succeeded in motivating many, if not most, UN member states to
establish the legislative and executive frameworks necessary for
implementing their counterterrorism obligations under UNSCR 1373.

While basic capacity building will continue in many "less able, but
willing" states, the CTC should be actively promoting the cooperation of
member states on bilateral, regional, and international levels; judicial
cooperation among states; and an attack on the links between terrorism
and other threats to security in the form of arms and drug trafficking,
organized crime, and money laundering.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**Complete twenty-seven bilateral and multilateral CT consultations.**

-   Maintain close cooperation and coordination with the governments of
    key partners to ensure that bilateral and multilateral exchanges
    continue at which U.S. officials and their counterparts further
    specific counterterrorism goals and priorities, share concerns, and
    overcome challenges.

-   Ensure that the counterterrorism engagement unit is adequately
    staffed.

-   Obtain adequate funding.

**Conduct 210 ATA courses and 210 program reviews among 60 states.**

-   Obtain adequate funding and trainers.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

In the wake of the events of 9/11, the President announced the start of
an offensive against the financial foundation of the global terror
network using every diplomatic, intelligence, law enforcement, and
financial tool and channel available to influence to identify, disrupt,
and dismantle terrorist financing networks. Publicly designating
terrorists and their supporters, freezing terrorists' assets and
strengthening the financial, regulatory, and judicial sectors of
vulnerable coalition partners play a critical role in this effort.

Domestically, the Department will continue to coordinate with the
Departments of the Treasury and Justice to designate individuals and
entities as supporters of terrorism under Executive Order 13224 and to
designate foreign terrorist organizations (FTOs) in order to freeze the
assets, stigmatize and isolate terrorists and their supporters
internationally, deter donations and contributions to and economic
transactions with them, and heighten public awareness and knowledge of
terrorists, terrorist organizations and those who support them. The
Department will also work with the Department of Justice to designate
groups under the Terrorism Exclusion List (TEL) so that individual
aliens providing support to or associated with TEL-designated
organizations may be found "inadmissible" to the United States or, if
already in U.S. territory, may in certain circumstances be deported.

Internationally, the Department will continue to lead USG efforts to
develop and sustain the bilateral and multilateral relationships,
strategies and activities required to win international support for and
cooperation with its efforts to combat terrorist financing. The
Department will continue to work with countries around the world to
ensure the effective implementation of UN Security Council Resolution
1373, which calls, among other things, for the freezing of terrorist
assets. The Department will also continue to actively encourage
countries to submit names to the UN 1267 Sanctions Committee's
consolidated list of individuals and entities with links to al-Qaeda
whose assets UN member states are obligated to freeze. Those included in
this list are also subject to arms bans and travel restrictions. The
1267 Sanctions Committee's work is the most focused multilateral effort
to combat the funding of terrorists and their supporters.

In addition to designations, the Department will work bilaterally with
nations whose financial systems are vulnerable to abuse by terrorists
and their supporters to reinforce those national institutions
responsible for combating terrorist financing. Such institutions include
judicial, banking, regulatory, and law enforcement agencies. Through
Department-provided training and technical assistance, these agencies
will be better equipped to identify, investigate and prosecute terrorist
financing and other financial crimes. This effort will impede terrorist
financing from overseas before funds reach possible terrorist cells in
the United States. Multilaterally, the Department expects to work
increasingly with international organizations such as the\
UN CTC and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) on money laundering,
and regional bodies such as the OAS, Organization for Security and
Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), ASEAN, the Pacific Islands Forum, and APEC
to detect, dismantle, and deter terrorist financing networks that
transcend national borders.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

Names of terrorist-related individuals and entities continue to be
designated under E.O. 13224.

-   Active coordination with other U.S. Government agencies involved in
    combating terrorist financing.

-   Active bilateral and multilateral diplomacy to persuade other
    countries to also freeze the assets of those designated under E.O.
    13224 and thereby increase the effectiveness and impact of U.S.
    action.

**Names of al Qaeda-related targets continue to be added to the UN 1267
Sanctions Committee\'s consolidated list.**

-   Lead the interagency process through which the USG develops and
    sustains bilateral and multilateral relationships, strategies and
    activities to win international support for and cooperation with our
    efforts to combat terrorist financing.

Foreign countries continue to submit names to the 1267 Sanctions
Committee either independently or together with the U.S.

-   Actively pursue bilateral and multilateral diplomacy focused on
    combating terrorist financing.

**All FTO reviews completed; no new addition pending for more than four
months.**

-   Hire and/or assign more staff to the designations unit that review
    FTOs.

-   Utilize new secure on-line connections to facilitate interagency
    communications by those who review designations.

-   Seek legislative changes to streamline dealing with new aliases of a
    designated FTO and eliminating the redesignation requirement.

**Five states that receive assistance to combat the financing of
terrorists institute such measures through U.S. training and assistance
programs.**

-   Lead interagency financial systems assessment teams to assess each
    state's domestic institutions responsible for combating terrorist
    financing.

-   Develop training and assistance programs based on assessments.

-   Administer delivery of assistance by selecting and funding
    appropriate training providers.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Department will continue to be ready to respond to terrorist-related
incidents against U.S. citizens or interests anywhere in the world
during 2004. As the lead federal agency to respond to international
terrorism-related crises, the Department heads the Foreign Emergency
Support Team (FEST). The FEST provides U.S. ambassadors at affected
posts with advice, assistance, and assessments concerning
terrorism-related issues ranging from preemptive operations to
post-incident and disaster response. The FEST serves as a coordination
mechanism to handle the myriad interagency resources available to
respond to acts of terrorism.

Effective FEST operations require regular training exercises. Exercises
enhance the readiness of the FEST, USG agencies, U.S. embassies, and
host governments to respond to an international counterterrorism-related
crisis and provide a unique opportunity to develop and validate new
operations-related counterterrorism policy. As a result, the Department
and the FEST coordinate and will participate during 2004 in two
Combatant Commanders' National- and International-level counterterrorism
exercises and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) sponsored
a no-notice counterterrorism exercise.

Preventing and responding to terrorism also includes measures to develop
technological solutions to specific counterterrorism problems and needs.
Terrorist operations continue to grow in technical sophistication and
lethality as terrorist groups exploit the Internet, acquire and utilize
commercially available technology, and conduct cooperative training
activities. In order to bolster the USG capacity to counter the growing
threat, the Department will continue to lead the interagency Technical
Support Working Group (TSWG), which conducts technology development in
order to effectively combat advances in terrorists' methods. In 2004,
the TSWG will conduct rapid prototyping and development of
counterterrorism technologies for chemical, biological, radiological,
and nuclear countermeasures; explosives detection and improvised device
defeat; infrastructure protection; physical security; surveillance,
collection and operations support; and tactical operations support. In
addition, the Department will continue its joint counterterrorism R&D
projects with the United Kingdom, Canada, and Israel to leverage funding
and capitalize on technology developments by foreign partners with
advanced R&D programs.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**The FEST participates in two national- and international-level
counterterrorism** **exercises and the CJCS-sponsored, no-notice
counterterrorism** **exercise.**

-   Work closely with the Department of Defense and other USG agencies
    to develop an exercise scenario that reflects the current
    counterterrorism threat environment and ensure that it meets USG
    counterterrorism training requirements.

-   Liaise with U.S. embassy country teams and host nation officials to
    garner the will of other nations to participate; later, coordinate
    their participation in the exercises.

-   Participate in a year-long series of planning conferences to ensure
    that exercise planning/ preparation are on course and address any
    diplomatic/ political issues associated with the exercises.

-   Ensure that adequate staff are assigned to each exercise.

**Complete 75 percent of currently funded TSWG research projects on time
and within budget; increase the number of projects accepted by 5
percent.**

-   Obtain adequate funding.

-   Work closely with Department of Defense co-chairs of the TSWG and
    interagency partners in order to identify the requirements of the
    counterterrorism community; present those requirements to industry,
    academia, and federal sources to bid project proposals; and evaluate
    proposals.

-   Prioritize proposals that are deemed acceptable and allocate funding
    accordingly.

-   Utilize cooperative R&D agreements with the United Kingdom, Canada,
    and Israel to leverage funding contributions.

### Public Benefit

The events of 9/11 proved how susceptible the United States and its
allies are to those who would do them harm. The Department, together
with the newly established Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and
other USG agencies, is addressing U.S vulnerabilities to terrorist
attacks within the United States. The strengthening of U.S. physical and
cyber borders against people who threaten U.S. security requires the
security of the global networks of commerce, travel, and communications
that enable the vital free flow of *bona fide* travelers and goods. At
the same time, the Department is combating the ability of terrorists to
travel, finance their activities, plan and conduct attacks, and recruit
and train new adherents.

The United States cannot protect its borders unless it works closely
with its neighbors - Canada, Mexico, and the nations of the Caribbean -
as well as America's friends and allies around the world. Shared
elements of physical infrastructure require coordination for effective
protection. The cyber system is global and therefore requires a global
response. Bilateral and multilateral responses to terrorism must create
a global network that can prevent terrorists and their tools from
reaching America's borders.

The Department remains committed to the protection of America's people,
institutions, land, economy, and infrastructure, as well as that of
America's allies.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Department seeks to use the visa process and to deny entry to
travelers who pose a national security threat. More effective
information sharing and more careful screening of applicants, will
result in improved national security measures that both protect U.S.
border security and promote legitimate international travel. Since the
events of 9/11, the Department has been engaged with other USG agencies
in an extensive and ongoing review of visa-issuing practices as they
relate to the security of U.S. borders and the United State itself.

The deployment of standardized consular systems and other changes such
as improved communications infrastructure have made it more practical to
have standard practices worldwide. The interests of homeland security
now make standard practices absolutely essential. In 2003, the
Department initiated a series of consular standard operating procedures
(SOPs) -- formal, documented procedures that will provide repeatable,
consistent and predictable results. By documenting uniform, standard
aspects of consular operations, we will improve overall security and the
integrity of the visa process. Carefully following SOPs will also
provide consular officers with assurance that they have done things
right and in accordance with Department policy. Some SOPs will be useful
summaries of existing guidance; others will establish new procedures.

The initial SOPs addressed student and exchange visitor visa processing,
security advisory opinion procedures, and cases requiring non-security
advisory opinions. Outreach will be crucial in explaining the changed
procedures to governments and visa applicants abroad. The Department is
committed to ensuring that consular officers have the tools needed to
meet today's challenges, from language and consular training to
technical resources. Since the events of 9/11, the Department has made
numerous changes and additions to the Foreign Service Institute\'s
consular training courses to improve interviewing techniques, name
checking, and accountability. More changes are planned regarding
counter-terrorism and security issues. As a result of these efforts, by
the end of FY 2004, consular officers will be better equipped to face
the challenge of identifying visa applicants who could pose a threat to
U.S. security and the visa process should be more transparent and
predictable for the average visa applicant who poses no danger.

The Department is participating in the development and implementation of
the National Security Entry-Exit System (NSEERS), an integrated entry
and exit data system for ports of entry (POES), required by the
Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) Data Management Improvement
Act of 2000 (PL 106-215) and section 302 of the Enhanced Border Security
and Visa Entry Reform Act. The Department will work to implement the
Entry-Exit Project Charter, drafted jointly with the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) and the Department of Transportation, which will
lead to an automated system to record the arrivals, departures, and
related activities (extension of stay, adjustment of status, application
for employment authorization, etc.) of foreigners in the United States.
In addition to providing the USG with better tools to record and monitor
the entry of aliens into the United States, this exit-entry system will
provide a means of continual review and validation of visa issuance
procedures.

![](media/image8.wmf){width="2.8208661417322833in"
height="1.8925196850393702in"}At the same time, the Department is
enhancing its database systems, including the Consular Consolidated
Database (CCD) of all U.S. visa applications, to monitor visa issuance
more effectively. The Consular Lookout and Support System (CLASS) is the
centerpiece of the consular border security program. It is on-line for
all U.S. consular operations overseas and now contains over 13 million
visa lookouts on individuals of concern to the U.S. law enforcement and
intelligence communities, records of inadmissible aliens, and data on
lost and stolen passports. TIPOFF, a database of suspected foreign
terrorists, incorporates all-source diplomatic, law enforcement, and
intelligence reporting data, and feeds into CLASS and other USG
watchlists. Both CLASS and TIPOFF have grown extensively, more than
doubling since the events of 9/11, when total visa lookouts numbered
approximately 5.7 million. Additional resources and, where appropriate,
a reevaluation of processes and software systems will be required to
handle the dramatically increased workload. The border security act
requires an interagency, interoperable electronic bio-data lookout
system that will contain information relevant to visa determinations.
The Department is committed to continued support of both CLASS and
TIPOFF and will address both systems and bureaucratic issues involved in
ensuring that these tools contain all possible name-retrievable threat
information available within the USG to enhance the monitoring of those
who enter the United States.

The Department is also working on the technical improvement of its
processes and systems and is deploying the hardware and software
necessary to scan records and capture documents digitally. This effort
will replace paper files with digitized image storage and retrieval and
improve real-time access to information resulting in higher quality
decisions by adjudicating consular officers. These efforts are also
needed to comply with recent legislative requirements for lengthier
storage of visa applications. In addition to meeting this legislative
mandate, this imaging strategy positions the Department to share an even
broader range of documents and data with interested USG agencies to
promote intelligence coordination and threat assessment.

Along with DHS and other USG agencies, the Department is working on a
number of programs with Canada and Mexico as part of the 30-point
U.S.-Canada Smart Border Action Plan and 22-point U.S.-Mexico Border
Partnership. The Department is working on agreements that would permit
the sharing of Advance Passenger Information/Passenger Name Records for
airline passengers entering the United States, Canada, or Mexico. The
Department is also working with both of these countries to expand
frequent travelers programs (NEXUS with Canada, SENTRI with Mexico) to
allow faster crossings for *bona fide* travelers. These programs will
increase security, facilitate law enforcement screening of illegal or
dangerous movements, aid trade and tourism, and address Canadian and
Mexican concerns.

The Department will confront a major challenge in establishing processes
to collect biometrics from overseas visa applicants. The existing Border
Crossing Card (BCC) program in Mexico has provided valuable experience
in this area. The BCC program already processes more than 2 million visa
applicants each year, collecting index finger fingerprints and digital
photographs. Implementation of a worldwide biometric enrollment program
will require considerable software development and a phased deployment
over the next several years. The Department will apply the lessons
learned from the BCC project and will rely upon a public-private
partnership, featuring on-site management by its personnel to help
ensure the integrity of the system.

Under the "Third Border Initiative" for the Caribbean region, the
Department will enhance the policy and legislative frameworks of
regional governments to improve the management and control of migration,
as well as enhance the operational capacities of Caribbean countries to
inspect travelers, their documents, and possessions.

The Department is currently developing a comprehensive regional plan to
address security issues, including the exchange of information about
legitimate travelers and undocumented migrants from third countries, to
facilitate the flow of these *bona fide* visitors, and to detect and
deter potential threats to U.S. and regional security. The Department's
Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) is
funding a \$2.2-million project to improve Jamaica's migration
management process and establish an automated lookout system at its
major international ports of entry. INL is also developing potential
programs for more secure machine-readable passports for Central American
countries.

Finally, the Department along with the Department of Justice and other
USG agencies, will create an interagency Migrant Smuggling and
Trafficking in Persons Coordination Center to improve operations against
organized criminal efforts to bring persons into the United States
illegally.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Access by six other agencies to CCD**

-   The Department is negotiating MOUs with law enforcement and
    intelligence agencies to standardize and institutionalize this
    exchange of data. Systems development and formal database interface
    documents are developed in each case.

**Retain all current applications electronically; continue the transfer
of archives to electronic media.**

-   Software and hardware to support the scanning and indexing of visa
    documents developed and sent to all posts. Given resource
    implications of global scanning, the Department's Bureau of Consular
    Affairs (CA) identifies most critical supporting documents first. CA
    envisions capturing serious refusal information, followed by
    applications in cases requiring special screening, visa referral
    cases, other refusals and, eventually if the benefit can be shown,
    all visa applications.

**Have operational biometrics collection programs at forty posts.**

-   Based upon decisions to be made by the USG interagency community, CA
    will play a role in developing software, deploying software and
    hardware to the first tranche of collection posts, and designing and
    implementing new procedures to allow secure and efficient collection
    of biometric information.

**Expand Electronic Passenger Manifest Systems**

-   The Advanced Passenger Information/Passenger Name Record (API-PNR)
    program with Canada was in place in early 2003. The associated
    program with Mexico is being partially supported under the
    \$25-million U.S./Mexico Border Partnership, directed by INL. The
    Mexican Government will implement an API by the end of 2003. By
    2004, fifty U.S. and foreign carriers will be participating in the
    program.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

In conjunction with efforts to monitor the flow of visitors into the
United States in order to target more effectively those who are of
concern, the Department is also working with DHS and other USG agencies
to strengthen the controls over goods that enter the United States. In
line with the travelers programs, the goal is to target those containers
or other packages that are potentially harmful, thus preventing them
from entering the United States or its environs. With this in mind, the
Department is working on initiatives to improve border security with
Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean region. In addition, the Department is
working with all its allies to have better control over the global
transportation of potentially harmful goods and materials. The goal is
to create a system that can stop harmful materials before they begin
their journey to the United States or its allies, and to create
redundancies that provide multiple layers of protection.

# U.S.-Canada Smart Border Action Plan

In December 2001, the United States and Canada signed the 30-point Smart
Border Accord to improve security along the common border while
facilitating the legitimate flow of goods and people. Its four goals are
the secure flow of people, the secure flow of goods, secure
infrastructure, and enhanced information sharing. Other areas of
activity include biosecurity and science and technology. The long-term
goal of the accord is to create a more secure and efficient border with
Canada and greater U.S. and Canadian coordination on information
sharing, visa policies, border infrastructure, and critical
infrastructure protection, in order to protect both nations better. Over
the past year the Department has worked closely with DHS to implement
this accord. There has been substantial progress in making the
U.S.-Canadian border safer and more efficient. The Department has
concluded agreements on information and fingerprint sharing, coordinated
expansion of overseas personnel, and expanded programs for movement of
known travelers and goods. Efforts in the area of transfer of goods
include the exchange of customs officers with Canada to help screen
incoming container shipments. Several information-sharing agreements and
an air pre-clearance agreement are nearing conclusion.

Along with the expansion of the NEXUS frequent travelers program (see
Performance Goal 1), the Department is augmenting the Free and Secure
Trade (FAST) Program to improve the security of cross-border shipments
while speeding the movement of truck traffic. Integrated Border
Enforcement Teams (IBETs) are coordinating enforcement efforts that will
result in greater efficiency and coherency, and more effective
protection.

# U.S.-Mexico Border Partnership

The U.S.-Mexico Border Partnership, signed in March 2002, commits the
United States and Mexico to implement border policies that embrace
technology and enhance bilateral cooperation to ensure safe, humane,
efficient, and modernized management of the border. The Border
Partnership action plan focuses on infrastructure development at POEs,
the secure flow of people (one million crossings/day, and the secure
flow of goods (\$233 billion in trade in 2001). The plan calls for the
use of infrastructure to diminish delays and facilitate the movement of
goods and people. Under the plan, goods will be subjected to
non-intrusive inspection systems at POEs. Portable x-ray machines will
screen vehicles and help detect smuggling. Additionally, various
security devices to combat smuggling are being tested. INL is providing
\$25 million in FY 2002 Terrorism Supplemental Appropriation
international law enforcement assistance to Mexico to help Mexican
authorities better carry out their responsibilities in support of the
Border Partnership. The Department is seeking future-year funding to
continue this assistance. Once fully operational, the Partnership will
result in increased security and improved efficiency demonstrating that
these goals are not exclusive but rather mutually obtainable.

INL's Mexico Border Security assistance program will enable U.S. and
Mexican law enforcement authorities to focus more effectively on
screening out illegal or dangerous movements of people and goods as
*bona fide* commerce and travel flow more efficiently.

# Third Border Initiative

The Third Border Initiative (TBI) is an ongoing, broad-based effort to
channel USG assistance to meet key challenges in the Caribbean region.
In the border security area in FY 2002, TBI began funding of \$900,000
to help Caribbean airports bring their safety and security enforcement
and regulations up to FAA and ICAO standards. INL is also implementing
the migration management assistance program detailed in Performance Goal
1.

[Container Security Initiative]{.underline}

In 2002, the Department participated in an interagency group that worked
to implement the Container Security Initiative (CSI) at the world\'s
twenty largest ports and have foreign carriers submit full passenger and
cargo manifest information electronically. By 2004, law enforcement
agencies will be able to use digital information for pre-boarding
screening and post-arrival tracking of people and goods.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Screen cargo bound for the United States before departure.**

-   Have declarations of principles signed for containerized freight. By
    regulation, screen all other cargo and visitors before they enter
    the United States.

-   All information on passengers and freight will be transmitted and
    stored electronically so that it can be organized and sent to the
    appropriate agencies.

**Coordinate rules and legislation internationally to achieve the
highest standards of comprehensive security for the transportation of
goods.**

-   Introduce upgraded border security goals through international
    organizations such as the UN, International Civil Aviation
    Organization, the World Customs Organization, the International
    Maritime Organization, the G-8, OAS, and APEC where the United
    States can provide leadership and garner support for transportation
    security.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The smooth operation of national infrastructures -- such as energy
generation and distribution networks, financial networks,
telecommunications networks, dams/waterways, and transportation networks
-- is a critical aspect of U.S. national strength. The information
systems that support these infrastructures are interconnected
domestically and internationally, creating complex interdependencies and
shared vulnerabilities. Furthermore, the United States shares with
Canada and Mexico the responsibility for many of its cross-border
physical infrastructure assets. The Department, through bilateral
discussions with close allies and with other countries in multilateral
fora, will continue to advocate cooperative international actions to
enhance physical and cyber security. By 2004, the Department's efforts
will have significantly strengthened the protection of shared -- and, by
extension, U.S. -- critical infrastructure.

The Department will raise concerns about infrastructural security
concerns with a broader international audience by working through
regional fora, such as the Organization of American States (OAS), the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), and the
Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum, as well as bilaterally
and through regional groupings in Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
The United States will continue to push for the adoption of concrete
action plans to reduce the risk to critical infrastructure. Where
possible, the United States will support education and training
activities related to key themes such as modernizing legal frameworks,
enforcing laws, creating incident response capabilities, and developing
public-private partnerships. With close U.S. allies, particularly Canada
and Mexico, the Department will continue to foster cooperative
relationships and common solutions to secure shared critical
infrastructure vulnerabilities, thereby ensuring a more robust North
American infrastructure.

Efforts to prevent attacks on critical infrastructure must be reinforced
by their effective criminalization and prosecution. In particular, in
many countries existing legal frameworks are an insufficient basis for
prosecution of cyber attacks. Through multilateral and bilateral
outreach, the Department will help nations develop and modernize
domestic legislation and strengthen trans-border law enforcement
cooperation by encouraging nations to develop appropriate standards to
permit successful investigation and prosecution of cybercrime, and by
providing technical assistance to implement the rules. The Department
supports the Council of Europe (COE) Cybercrime Convention as a model
for legal frameworks and trans-border law enforcement cooperation, and
as such supports its speedy activation. Once in force, the Department
will seek to encourage accession to the convention by non-COE nations.

### Public Benefit

The United States must provide for the safety of Americans at home and
abroad, protect against threats to its interests worldwide, and honor
commitments to its allies and friends. The activities of the Department
are among the most cost-effective instruments for enhancing and ensuring
regional stability. Through diplomacy and capacity building efforts, the
United States builds and strengthens relations with neighbors and allies
worldwide by shaping regional environments and by informing
international publics in ways that can prevent, contain, or resolve
conflicts, and foster cooperative efforts. In the same way, the
Department also advances U.S. national security interests through the
resolution of regional instability, so that all Americans, at home and
abroad, are safe from violence. The Department achieves these regional
stability objectives by focusing on two main performance goals.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

Close and stable ties with key allies emphasize U.S. global partnerships
and contribute to security for traveling Americans. A deepening
relationship with Russia in bilateral and multilateral fora has provided
and will provide a venue to discuss Eurasian security issues such as
counterterrorism, nonproliferation, border security, and human rights.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) continues to be America's
strongest and most important partnership. Security relationships in both
East Asia and the Middle East also contribute to more effective security
for U.S. national interests worldwide. The Department continues and will
continue to maintain strong relations with Canada and Mexico and
international partnerships with key organizations such as the European
Union (EU) and the Organization of American States (OAS). The
Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) provides the
United States with a platform to advance the safety of its citizens and
the security of its friends and key allies worldwide.

In the wake of the events of 9/11, the Department has secured bilateral
agreements that enable U.S. forces to initiate combat operations under
Operation Enduring Freedom. Since then, the Department has continued
efforts to negotiate Status of Forces Agreements (SOFAs), basing, and
overflight/landing agreements overseas in anticipation of possible
follow-on phases of the global war on terrorism. These efforts will
continue.

The Department also leads a USG working group that seeks bilateral
agreements to ensure that members of the U.S. armed forces and USG
officials are not subject to prosecution by the International Criminal
Court (ICC).

The Department will continue to strengthen existing security
relationships with key allies. The Department will continue to improve
the U.S.-South Korean security alliance by consulting closely on new
issues such as the future of the Alliance initiative and improvement of
the SOFA and the Land Partnership Plan, and will work with NATO allies
to strengthen transatlantic defense capabilities.

The Department will work with Russia to dispose of excess Russian
weapons plutonium, dismantle warheads, and use U.S. assistance programs
to retrain Russian nuclear scientists. The Department will also work
with the Newly Independent States (NIS) to ensure they have effective
export controls that meet internationally recognized standards. In
cooperation with European and East Asian allies, as well as China, the
Department will work to prevent Iran from acquiring the foreign
technology needed for nuclear weapons programs.

By means of public diplomacy, the Department will explain U.S. national
security policies and encourage nations to support and cooperate with
U.S. efforts to secure peace; deter aggression; and prevent, defuse, and
manage crises.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The United States plays a mediating role in several of the world's most
severe conflicts and will use its position on the UN Security Council to
engage the international community in the search for solutions to crisis
situations. U.S. representatives are currently involved in diplomatic
activities that include Middle East peace efforts, Cyprus talks, and
regional stability in Southeast Europe. The Department continues to
support peace in Northern Ireland and also seeks to encourage Korean
reconciliation, peace on the Korean peninsula, and greater stability in
Northeast Asia. The Department extends its diplomacy to other conflicts
affecting such areas as South Asia, where it is pursuing regional
nonproliferation priorities and a reduction in tensions, and East
Africa, where transnational conflicts persist.

To combat the threat of terrorists who pose a major challenge to
regional stability in the Middle East, Asia, Africa, and Latin America,
the Department works closely with friendly governments to build and
maintain the political will and institutional capacity for fighting
terrorism. The Department coordinates and implements U.S.
counterterrorism capacity building overseas and has expanded and
refocused its training programs to address the most critical issues.

Through International Military Education and Training (IMET), Foreign
Military Financing (FMF), and Peacekeeping Operations (PKO) programs,
the United States is strengthening the peacekeeping skills and abilities
of various regional partners. The United States trained and equipped
West African battalions under Operation Focus Relief to enhance
peacekeeping capacity in the sub-region. Battalions from Nigeria and
Ghana contributed significantly to successful operations conducted by
the UN peace mission in Sierra Leone (UNAMSIL).

The United States is also aware that other factors contribute to
instability and threaten the very foundations of peaceful and
sustainable democracy. These include health crises, the illegal
transport and dumping of hazardous wastes, the illegal trade in toxic
chemicals and pesticides, and illegal and corrupt exploitation of
natural resources. The United States has initiated new global
public-private partnerships to fight infectious disease, particularly
HIV/AIDS. Working with the G-8 and other concerned countries, the United
States has embarked on a campaign to champion political commitment to
address deforestation, including a partnership with Indonesia, one of
the leading concerned countries. The Department has brought together
other countries to discuss mutually beneficial approaches to the use of
shared natural resources before issues escalate into armed conflict.

The Department will press India and Pakistan to resume a direct,
high-level dialogue that can reduce tensions and lead to peaceful
resolution of disputes. In Africa, the Department will seek to encourage
the deployment of internationally sanctioned monitors to Sudan to
solidify progress made towards peace. Elsewhere in Africa and in other
regions, the Department will continue to seek the resolution of ongoing
conflicts and the successful management and conclusion of UN and other
multilateral peacekeeping missions that leverage U.S. influence and
resources. In the Andes, the Department will significantly expand
assistance to the Government of Colombia to regain national authority
over much of the country and assist Colombia's neighbors as they prevent
the expansion of terrorist violence and drug production.

Arms control agreements contribute to confidence, transparency,
predictability, and stability, thus serving as effective tools to
prevent conflict. The Treaty on Conventional Armed Forces in Europe
(CFE) plays a key stabilizing role in the Eurasian and Transatlantic
security structures and reinforces U.S. influence in European security
matters. A decision to seek ratification of its follow-on---the Adapted
CFE Treaty, which responds to new post-Cold War challenges---awaits
Russian fulfillment of obligations to reduce Russian forces in Georgia
and Moldova. The Department has set the highest standards for
implementation of the CFE Treaty, the Vienna Document (confidence- and
security-building measures \[CSBMs\]), and the Treaty on Open Skies
(reciprocal, unarmed observation flights) - especially their
verification provisions.

Combating terrorist threats to regional stability will remain a critical
priority; the Department will seek to keep counterterrorism at the top
of bilateral and multilateral agendas. The Department will work to
ensure that the UN presses its members to meet their obligations to
fight terrorism and will engage regional organizations such as the EU,
OAS, and ASEAN to press member states for counterterrorism action and
coordination. The Department will expand capacity building programs such
as the Anti-terrorism Training and Assistance (ATA) Program, the
Terrorist Interdiction Program (TIP), and policy engagement workshops
for senior officials. The Department will expand regional
counterterrorism cooperation through a greater number of regional
conferences and anti-terror financial training. The Middle East
Partnership Initiative (MEPI) is also a critical element in the
long-term war on terror through enhancing economic, educational, and
political opportunity, particularly for women and young people.

The Department will expand efforts to inform the international public
about U.S. policy towards Iraq and encourage public support for the U.S.
goal of a broad-based representative Iraqi Government committed to the
rule of law, protection of the rights of the Iraqi people, and regional
stability.

![](media/image9.wmf){width="2.666535433070866in"
height="1.9311023622047243in"}The Department intends to change the focus
of the Enhanced International Peacekeeping Capabilities (EIPC) program
towards regional peacekeeping training centers. Because collaboration
and cooperation are the foundations of peacekeeping training, focusing
on regional training centers that bring nations together in common cause
will further the U.S. goal of maintaining regional stability. In this
vein, the Department will continue to engage the military forces of
Western African countries in order to enhance peacekeeping capabilities
and ensure their positive participation when responding to regional
contingencies. The adjacent chart shows that by the end of FY 2004, the
Department hopes to have U.S.-trained forces from twenty-two countries
participating in PKOs.

In Europe, U.S. security assistance will continue to support countries
undertaking military reforms and modernization necessary to promote
regional stability, work toward the integration and interoperability
necessary to meet NATO standards, and move toward accession to NATO.
U.S. security assistance also provides support for front-line states in
Central Asia that have provided essential assistance to the United
States and coalition partners in the global war on terrorism, and that
are critical to the continued success of those efforts.

Through economic and developmental assistance, the Department will
support pro-Western reform-minded governments and development of
civilian-controlled professional militaries that are appropriately
sized, effectively trained, and capable of supporting border defense
missions to ensure territorial integrity. By leveraging complementary
interests in the Balkans with security interests in other regions such
as the Caucasus and Central Asia, the Department will strive to achieve
the broadest possible impact from U.S. security assistance efforts.

The Department will continue to partner with African nations through the
Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and the African
Contingency Operations Training and Assistance (ACOTA) program to
provide assistance aimed at creating a sustainable capacity for conflict
mitigation and peace support operations. The Department will also assist
the military forces of African countries in developing a
counterterrorism operations capability and in conducting peace support
missions. The Department will increase support for North and West
African nations through its Pan-Sahel Initiative designed to establish
rapid-reaction units to address security threats along their borders. In
South and Northeast Asia, the Department will consult with and encourage
China to continue its efforts to contribute to peace and stability.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**Resolve two conflicts (Congo-Great Lakes and Sudan).**

-   Using ACOTA, FMF and other programs, improve conflict management
    skills of key regional actors through training of African staffs and
    militaries.

-   Seek employment of better-trained and -equipped African units to
    conduct peace support operations.

-   Provide operational support to sub-regional efforts to mitigate
    conflict.

-   Use diplomatic, economic, and other levers to pressure all sides to
    a conflict to sign/comply with peace agreements; work multilaterally
    and bilaterally.

-   In the Congo, the key issue is army integration, which will help
    ensure the long-term viability of the Congolese Government, and its
    frontiers; IMET and PKO will be used to support U.S. and regional
    efforts to assist with security sector reform.

-   Closely linked to resolution of the Congo conflict will be support
    of the African Union Mission to help end civil war in Burundi. Using
    PKO funds, the USG will assist the deployment of regional
    peacekeepers to monitor the December 2002 agreement. Stability in
    Burundi will reduce instability in the neighboring eastern region of
    the Democratic Republic of Congo.

-   In Sudan, the United States will collaborate with the African
    Inter-Governmental Authority on Development (IGAD), Troika partners
    (the U.K. and Norway), UN agencies, and other entities to implement
    signed peace agreements.

-   As needed, the United States will continue support for deployment of
    ceasefire monitoring mechanisms, including the Civilian Protection
    Monitoring Team (CPMT) and the Nuba Mountains Joint Military
    Commission (JMC). This support will also include coordination with
    the UN Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO) for a possible
    UN mission.

**Withdraw two peace support missions (Sierra Leone and
Ethiopia/Eritrea).**

-   Prepare Republic of Sierra Leone Armed Forces (RSLAF) and police to
    defend the borders and to support extension of state administration
    throughout the country.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Continue the West Africa Stabilization Program effort in conjunction
    with UN and U.K. lead-in peace building. US support to enhance
    professionalism of RSLAF through continued provision of logistics
    support/training and logistics training depot in Freetown, as well
    as IMET and Defense Department-funded programs.

-   To help protect Sierra Leone from external threats, the United
    States will seek to contain Charles Taylor in Liberia using a
    mixture of bilateral and multilateral diplomacy (e.g., sanctions,
    Kimberly Process, etc.), and primarily through Economic Support Fund
    (ESF) programs designed to lay the foundation for his succession
    following the next round of elections.

-   Final withdrawal of the UN Mission in Ethiopia and Eritrea (UNMEE)
    will be contingent on the successful conclusion of the border
    demarcation effort. Toward this strategy, the United States provides
    ESF to the UN trust fund supporting the demarcation process and is
    otherwise diplomatically engaged in pressing the two sides to
    cooperate fully with the Boundary Commission.

**No resumption of infiltration into Kashmir.**

-   Maintain pressure on Pakistan to keep its commitments to stop
    permanently its support for infiltration.

-   Work to enhance India's ability to monitor the border.

-   Foster cooperative and confidence-building programs in Kashmir and
    between India and Pakistan in areas such as economic cooperation,
    people-to-people contacts, and nuclear confidence-building.

**Disband terrorist groups in Pakistan .**

-   Maintain pressure on Pakistan to end all official support for
    Kashmiri militant groups.

-   Consider assistance in demobilization, disarmament, and
    rehabilitation of militants.

**India and Pakistan effectively implement existing nuclear and
conventional CBMs, and agree to implement new ones.**

-   Promote nuclear and missile restraint as well as confidence-building
    measures, properly enforced export controls, and non-proliferation.

-   Strengthen Indo-U.S. security ties as a key element of the growing
    U.S. strategic relationship with this emerging global power.

-   Strengthen U.S. Department of Defense and Pakistani Ministry of
    Defense military ties as a key element of our intensifying bilateral
    relationship.

**No major problems implementing the Adapted CFE Treaty.**

-   Maintain pressure on Russia to fulfill all Istanbul commitments.

-   Work with Georgia and Moldova to assist them in working with Russia
    to fulfill Russia\'s Istanbul commitments.

-   Lead U.S. ratification efforts once Russia fulfills all Istanbul
    commitments.

-   Work in NATO fora and in the Joint Consultative Group (JCG) to
    resolve implementation issues.

**Key states accede to the Adapted CFE Treaty.**

-   Once the Adapted CFE Treat enters into force, work with other CFE
    States Parties in the JCG and with allies at NATO concerning
    accession of new states, especially those that have been invited to
    join NATO.

-   Assist states seeking accession by training their experts in CFE
    provisions and procedures.

**Units from twenty-two PKO-trained countries participate in
international PKOs.**

-   The USG will work with NATO to provide training to any country
    outside of NATO that offers to participate in operations in the
    Balkans, Implementation Force (IFOR) and KFOR.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Encourage NATO to host peacekeeping exercises for its member states
    and all PfP members.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Work with U.S. Combatant Commanders to offer bilateral and
    multilateral peacekeeping-based exercises within their regions.

**Increase China's coordination with the United States and the
international community regarding the Korean peninsula, South Asia, and
the Middle East.**

-   Pursue high-level diplomatic efforts in bilateral and multilateral
    fora to ensure Chinese cooperation on these issues.

-   Ensure that high-level dialogue with senior Chinese leadership
    solicits Chinese cooperation and includes U.S. position on these
    issues.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Pursue, as appropriate, coordination on regional security issues
    raised through multilateral fora, including the UN, APEC, and other
    regional bodies.

-   Coordinate closely to make certain that U.S. interests in economic
    and other areas are neither undercut by, nor conflict with,
    Sino-U.S. cooperation on regional security issues.

**Promptly report arms transfers on the WAIS; report denials of arms
transfers; give notification before undercutting a previous dual-use
denial.**

-   Active diplomacy, (e.g., demarches and consultations) with members
    nations of the WA and other non-WA nations, the UN, other
    international organizations, and NGOs as needed.

**Share "best practices" papers on effective export control practices
within the WA.**

-   Consultation efforts will focus on prompt reporting of arms
    transfers on the WAIS and sharing of \"best practices\" papers on
    effective export control practices within the WA.

### Public Benefit

Preventing the spread of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their
means of delivery has acquired new urgency since the events of 9/11 and
the subsequent October 2001 anthrax attacks. These events have put a
personal face on the threat of WMD and missiles. Success in reducing
this threat is the only viable option, as access by terrorists to WMD
and delivery system materials opens the door to their use against the
American homeland and U.S. interests abroad.

The Department is vigorously involved in reducing the global WMD and
missile threat, and is pursuing active measures that include improved
and effectively enforced export controls, agreements reducing current
stockpiles of nuclear weapons, and cooperative efforts to build missile
defenses. Moreover, the Department seeks strengthened implementation of
the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT), aimed at halting the spread
of nuclear weapons, as well as the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) and
the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC), targeted at banning chemical
and biological weapons, respectively, and strengthening efforts to keep
them out of the arsenals of rogue states.

A transformed relationship with Russia is a key element of U.S.
strategy. Upon taking office, the President declared that he wanted to
change the U.S.-Russian relationship from one of nuclear balance of
terror to one based on common responsibilities and interests. In 2001,
the President made a commitment to achieve a credible deterrent with the
lowest possible number of nuclear weapons, consistent with national
security requirements, and invited Russia to join the United States in
building defenses against the common threat posed by rogue state
missiles that could threaten both countries, as well as U.S. allies.
This new strategic framework with Russia contributes directly to
reducing the WMD threat.

The Department will work with Russia to dispose of excess Russian
weapons plutonium, dismantle warheads, and use U.S. assistance programs
to retrain Russian nuclear scientists. The Department will also work
with the Newly Independent States (NIS) to ensure they have effective
export controls that meet internationally recognized standards. In
cooperation with European and East Asian allies, as well as China, the
Department will work to prevent Iran from acquiring the foreign
technology needed for nuclear weapons programs.

The Department is also responsible for establishing verification policy
and ensuring that these issues are a central element of arms control and
nonproliferation agreements and commitments. To this end, the Department
oversees the verification aspects of such agreements and commitments as
they are being formulated and negotiated, assesses and reports on
compliance with existing arms control and nonproliferation agreements
and commitments, and coordinates the development of technology in
support of arms control and nonproliferation objectives.

Finally, the destabilizing effect of the spread of WMD and their
delivery systems worldwide has real consequences. Regional instability
sends global political, economic, and social ripples. Tensions in South
Asia are illustrative of the risk of the spread of WMD and missiles, as
well as their possible use. The Department is responding to the
President's imperative that halting WMD and missile proliferation are
central elements of U.S. foreign policy.

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance 

The Department will engage with individual countries and regions in a
variety of ways and fora to reduce the WMD proliferation threat,
focusing on key areas in Eurasia, East Asia, South Asia, and the Middle
East. The Department will commit significant diplomatic and financial
resources to prevent the flow of WMD/missile expertise from Eurasia.
This effort will include pursuing an array of threat reduction programs
in Russia and the Eurasian countries to control and dispose of excess
WMD and missile-related materials. In particular, these programs will
include moves to eliminate excess fissile materials; ensure that
nuclear, biological, chemical weapon, and missile*-*related expertise is
not transferred to states of concern and terrorists; secure dangerous
biological pathogens; and help countries meet their arms control
obligations. The Department seeks to enhance significantly the
traditional measures aimed at preventing the proliferation of WMD,
missiles, related technologies, and materials by the end of 2004.

The Department is providing U.S. assistance to strengthen national
export control systems in potential WMD source countries. In South Asia,
improved and effective enforcement of export controls is vital to ensure
that India and Pakistan do not become sources of sensitive materials and
technology for other proliferators. The Department is also increasing
export control cooperation with key transit/transshipment countries in
the Mediterranean and Persian Gulf. The Department will continue border
control assistance to Central Asia and the Caucasus. These controls are
designed to prevent transfers of such items to end-uses and end-users of
proliferation concern, including rogue states and terrorist networks.

The Department will also focus its energies on deepening the new
strategic framework with Russia, expanding cooperation with NATO and
Russia on missile defenses, and engaging in a strategic dialogue with
China and India.

Regarding the new strategic framework, the Department will continue to
operationalize the vision of the May 2002 U.S.-Russian Joint
Declaration, which stated that "The era in which the U.S. and Russia saw
each other as an enemy or strategic threat has ended. We are partners
and we will cooperate to advance stability, security, and economic
integration, and to jointly counter global challenges and to help
resolve regional conflicts." The Department's efforts will include both
implementation of the Moscow Treaty on Strategic Offensive Reductions,
and broader U.S.-Russian cooperation in security areas. Under the Moscow
Treaty, the United States and Russia will each reduce the number of its
strategic nuclear warheads to between 1,700 and 2,200 over the next ten
years. The Department will explore transparency measures with Russia to
enhance confidence in each party's treaty implementation.

In the broader area of security cooperation and transparency, Russia
appears to be prepared to agree on voluntary transparency,
predictability, and confidence-building measures with regard to missile
defense-related plans and programs. The Department will seek Russian
agreement on a range of joint research and development cooperation
projects. The Department will also work with NATO and other allies to
gain their agreement to deploy missile defense systems to defend allied
forces against short- and medium-range ballistic missiles, and later to
defend allied territory and population centers against long-range
ballistic missiles.

Regarding China, the Department will work to enhance mutual
understanding and transparency, particularly with respect to mitigating
China's reaction to U.S. missile defense programs.

    legislation and enhanced enforcement capabilities developed with
    U.S. assistance to prevent, deter, and interdict shipments of
    proliferation concern.

-   Appropriate Department and USG interagency stakeholders vet and the
    NSC approves U.S. demarches and negotiating positions

######### Russian technology proliferation

-   Nonproliferation dialogue with Russia (to halt WMD/missile
    proliferation to Iran); active diplomacy to sensitize Europe to the
    dangers of Iran's programs and ensure that European political
    outreach to Iran includes efforts to halt Iran's WMD/missile
    efforts.

**China does not assist in nuclear and missile development**

-   Engage China, including at the highest levels, to make clear that it
    must halt Chinese entities' WMD/missile-related transfers to
    countries of concern (e.g., Iran); continue to make clear that
    effective enforcement of export controls is key.

    **Halt North Korean missile exports**

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Work with regime partners, friends and allies to halt illicit North
    Korean missile-related exports and to echo the U.S. call to North
    Korea to maintain its long-range missile flight-test moratorium.

**Means and Strategies Common to all Targets Within the "States Conform
to International Nonproliferation Norms of Behavior" Indicator**

-   Active diplomacy, (e.g., demarches and consultations) with other
    nations, the UN, the IAEA and other international organizations and
    NGOs), as needed.

-   Via regime Plenaries (NSG, MTCR, AG, and WA) and outreach
    activities, work to strengthen regime controls, urge restraint in
    WMD/missile programs (including with non-partners); engage
    non-partners to urge that they bring their respective
    nonproliferation policies and practices (including export controls)
    in line with international norms.

-   Encourage countries to adopt the control lists of the international
    nonproliferation regimes and ensure effective control of items of
    proliferation concern, not only exports but also over the movement
    through their territories.

-   Work to have additional countries subscribe and implement the
    International Code of Conduct Against Ballistic Missile
    Proliferation; have Code running smoothly.

-   Appropriate Department and USG interagency stakeholders vet and the
    NSC approves U.S. demarches and negotiating positions.

**South Asia: Continued unilateral nuclear testing moratoria; restraints
in nuclear and missile program; stronger export controls**

-   Engage India and Pakistan on WMD/missile concerns including further
    development of programs, testing, deployment, and exports.

**Middle East: Iraq defiance of UN inspectors**

-   Work with the UN Security Council and other entities to negotiate,
    implement, and enforce controls on exports to Iraq effectively.

**East Asia: Progress on verifiable constraints on North Korea's missile
programs; North Korea complies with international agreements.**

-   Work with regime partners, friends and allies to halt illicit North
    Korea missile-related exports and to echo the U.S. call to North
    Korea to maintain its long-range missile flight-test moratorium.

**Complete multilateral framework and international financing plan
(US/Russia Agreement).**

-   Accomplished through bilateral and multilateral negotiations with
    Russia and key donor states such as the G-7 and Sweden.

-   Careful preparations/meetings for negotiations are designed to
    ensure that the plutonium-disposition multilateral framework,
    necessary Russian program decisions, and the linked U.S. domestic
    program, stay on track.

-   Detailed negotiations with the G-7 allies and Sweden on the
    specifics of the plutonium-disposition multilateral framework and
    financing are required.

-   This strategy has so far resulted in pledges of \$700 million and
    additional pledges are likely by the 2003 G-8 Summit at Evian, as
    well as considerable common ground for upcoming negotiations on the
    framework.

-   Appropriate Department and USG interagency stakeholders vet and the
    NSC approves U.S. demarches and negotiating positions.

**Maya FMSF contains at least several tons of plutonium under bilateral
transparency.**

-   Accomplished through bilateral negotiations with Russia centered on
    fissile material storage facility (FMSF) transparency arrangements.

-   Appropriate Department and USG interagency stakeholders vet and the
    NSC approves U.S. demarches and negotiating positions.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance - Multilateral WMD Agreements

In the wake of the events of 9/11, the global war on terrorism redoubled
the Department's determination to reduce the risks that terrorists and
the states that harbor them might acquire and use WMD. This has added
urgency to the need to bolster the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty
(NPT) and the international safeguards regime, the CWC, and the BWC. The
bedrock of the Department's nuclear nonproliferation strategy is the
NPT, for which the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) plays a key
verification role. For the IAEA in 2004, the Department hopes to
strengthen the agency's operations, replace outdated equipment, and
support development of new measures to verify that nuclear materials
removed from nuclear weapons by the United States and Russia are not
re-used for weapons.

To buttress the NPT, the Department will continue to work to strengthen
the IAEA. Mindful of the risks from countries such as Iraq and Iran, the
Department will fund and work with the IAEA on improved safeguards on
nuclear materials and facilities and increase its ability to ferret out
covert weapons efforts. The Additional Safeguards Protocol sets an
important new nonproliferation norm that every country should accept.
The Department will also seek political support within the review
process toward the 2005 NPT Review Conference (RevCon) for actions to
reinforce the NPT barrier to proliferation of nuclear weapons.

The discovery of a clandestine highly enriched uranium (HEU) enrichment
program in North Korea and its subsequent decisions to terminate IAEA
safeguards and withdraw from the NPT have led to a serious situation on
the Korean peninsula. The Department is rallying support behind an
effort designed to encourage North Korea to reconsider these decisions
and return as a party to the NPT. The Department seeks a North Korea
that is a fully compliant non-nuclear state party to the NPT.

In May 2002, the President sent to the Senate for ratification the
U.S.-IAEA Additional Protocol to strengthen safeguards which will assist
the Department's ongoing diplomatic efforts to encourage universal
acceptance and implementation of the Additional Protocol. Other critical
areas requiring strong support are IAEA's nuclear safety program and its
nuclear materials security initiatives. The Department will seek support
from other states to assist the IAEA in reducing the risks of nuclear
terrorism, and to ensure that the IAEA's regular budget provides
sufficient resources for the safeguards program. By the end of 2004, the
Department expects to address critical programs designed to counter
nuclear terrorism and implement strengthened safeguards, among others.
The Department will also champion the development of advanced safeguards
technology and procedures, confront unique safeguards challenges, combat
nuclear smuggling, and strengthen nuclear safety measures in Eastern
Europe and Eurasia.

Strengthening international nonproliferation regimes such as the Zangger
Committee, the Nuclear Supplier's Group (NSG), the Missile Control
Technology regime (MTCR), the Wassenaar Arrangement (WA), and the
Australia Group (AG) remains critical to the Department. The United
States has helped lead international efforts to develop and initiate the
International Code of Conduct Against Ballistic Missile Proliferation
(ICOC), a continuous, everyday process.

Another high priority for the Department is to strengthen the CWC
primarily by ensuring that the new leadership of the Organization for
the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has the wherewithal to carry
out its full inspection program. A series of voluntary contributions is
fiscally preferable to increasing substantially the base of the OPCW's
budget. The Department will also continue to work to improve OPCW's
budget processes and its focus on core missions. The Department will
continue efforts to expand the number of States Parties to the CWC, and
to facilitate destruction of Russian chemical weapons stockpiles. By the
end of 2004, the Department hopes to ensure that the OPCW has optimized
its inspection activities so that they may better reflect the potential
risks posed by different categories of chemical facilities and has
increased the efficiency of inspections of chemical weapons destruction.

The Department will work to persuade other States Parties of its new
approach to strengthening implementation of the BWC. The United States
believes the most effective way to counter the biological weapons threat
is to focus on national efforts to improve implementation of the BWC. It
would be a step forward if all States Parties were to make greater
efforts to ensure that biological weapons could not be transferred to
illegitimate groups or acquired because of lax security, and that
national laws regarding possession and transfer of biological agents are
tightened and strictly enforced.

The Department will continue working with other states to complete an
International Monitoring System (IMS) (originally envisaged as part of
the CTBT) that will improve U.S. and other countries' capabilities for
monitoring possible nuclear tests anywhere in the world. In addition,
the Department will continue work at the Geneva Conference on
Disarmament to resume negotiations on a Fissile Material Cut-Off Treaty
(FMCT) that would cap the amount of material available for use in
nuclear weapons.

The Department wants to strengthen existing nonproliferation treaties
and upgrade the means to verify compliance, including strengthening
compliance with the safeguards and verification requirements of the NPT,
and encouraging adherence to and compliance with the CWC and BWC.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance - Nuclear Energy Cooperation 

The Department will promote the role of nuclear energy in sustainable
development and ensure that the United States continues to be seen as a
reliable and valuable partner in international nuclear cooperation. In
pursuing this, the Department will provide advice and technical
assistance to other countries, including those operating unsafe Soviet
designed reactors, in meeting international standards of safety and
physical security. Over the past few months, the Department has launched
pilot projects with Nonproliferation and Disarmament Fund (NDF) funding
that address the global problem of radiation sources, which can be used
in terrorist "dirty" bombs. The Department also nearly concluded the
Multilateral Environmental Program in the Russian Federation Framework
(MNEPR) Agreement to manage spent fuel and radioactive waste from
defense programs safely. This important work will continue, and in the
case of NDF, will expand as more projects are sought.

The Department will continue to work with industry and other governments
to ensure the smooth operation of existing cooperative relationships
that account for significant export earnings and provide the entree for
discussion of nuclear proliferation issues. The Department will also
pursue a nuclear cooperation agreement with Russia, if Russia-Iran
issues are resolved. The Department also will continue to press for a
non-binding commitment that focuses on strengthening and reinforcing the
IAEA Code of Conduct on the Safety and Security of Radioactive sources
to help in preventing terrorist access to material that could be used
for a radiological or "dirty" bomb.

### Means and Strategies: Multilateral WMD Agreements

**The IAEA uses the first increase in its safeguards budget to meet
critical needs.**

-   Pursue consultations with the IAEA; key supporters of safeguards
    seek to influence the IAEA in establishing priorities for
    distribution of additional resources.

-   In response to the nuclear terrorism threat, support IAEA work that
    provides enhanced assistance to states for detection and prevention,
    including developing guidance and providing training and advisory
    services.

-   Continue close collaboration with the IAEA to ensure that both its
    safeguards and anti-terrorism programs gain widespread financial,
    in-kind, and political support.

-   Appropriate Department and USG interagency stakeholders vet and the
    NSC approves U.S. demarches and negotiating positions.

**More states take action on strengthening the safeguards protocol; the
IAEA continues to reflect U.S. views.**

-   Work closely with the IAEA and key nations supporting the Additional
    Protocol to focus energies and resources on countries with
    significant nuclear activities.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Department is responsible for establishing policy that assesses and
articulates the elements of verifiable nonproliferation and arms control
agreements and commitments. The Department is also responsible for
establishing noncompliance policy by weighing data against obligations
and commitments to determine whether the actions of a nation or an
entity are in compliance.

The success of verification regimes can be measured by the degree to
which they are crafted to provide confidence in deterring and detecting
noncompliance. In this regard, verifiability is enhanced when
intelligence is robust and credible information on activities to be
limited or proscribed can be collected, the language of an agreement or
commitment is clear and is structured to maximize the information the
Department expects to obtain, and the policy process of analyzing the
data using reasonable standards of evidence is rigorous. Verification
can be judged effective when the degree of verifiability is sufficient
given the probability of noncompliance, the acceptability of the risks
associated with both undetected and detected noncompliance, and the
ability of the United States to respond to or deny the harmful effects
of noncompliance on the United States.

Timely and rigorous compliance assessments are essential to inform
policymakers whether other nations and entities are complying with their
commitments and to enable timely and appropriate responses to
violations. As such, it is essential that the Department rigorously
assesses activities and verifies that parties to agreements and
commitments follow through on their obligations.

In 2004, the Department will expand and strengthen its compliance
assessments by fully utilizing sensitive compartmented intelligence
information regarding WMD activities and the proliferation behavior of
other nations and entities. Applying additional rigor to compliance
assessments will further support and inform the process for evaluating
and determining sanctions in 2004. In addition, the Department will
expand its compliance diplomacy efforts to resolve U.S. compliance
concerns and gain support for redoubled enforcement efforts. A major
Department focus will be to develop an ongoing dialogue with key
Congressional committees on verification and compliance issues and
requirements.

In carrying out its mission, the Department has produced a verifiability
assessment of the Moscow Treaty. The Senate provided its advice and
consent to ratification of the Moscow Treaty on March 6, 2003.\
The Department has identified the elements of and is seeking
international support for verifiable dismantlement of North Korea's
nuclear weapons capability. The Department is also assessing a
verifiable ban on North Korean missile production, testing, and exports.
The Department also will turn its attention to developing the
Administration's approach to the conduct of challenge inspections under
the CWC. In an effort to support compliance diplomacy, the Department
will pursue an open source information initiative to gather all
available information to enhance detection and analysis of
noncompliance, as well as support strategies for enforcement.

Strengthening the Department's efforts to develop and implement
verification concepts and to advocate the development and deployment of
intelligence capabilities to monitor WMD will continue in 2004. To this
end, the Department will seek permanent funding lines for key
intelligence community assets and will assess the impact on treaty
verifiability of changes to these assets.

The Department also will advocate a robust Verification Assets Fund (V
Fund) to preserve critical assets and to identify and promote R&D of
promising verification technologies. Additionally, the Department will
continue to manage the Nonproliferation and Arms Control Technology
Working Group (NPAC TWG) that annually reviews \$500-million worth of
arms control and nonproliferation verification R&D across twenty-five
USG agencies. By bringing together these agencies, the NPAC TWG
identifies ongoing arms control and nonproliferation R&D throughout the
USG and seeks to eliminate redundancies, identify gaps, and facilitate
enhanced coordination and better products. In 2004, the Department will
continue to participate in more than thirty USG intelligence groups that
monitor and assess weapons and proliferation activities. Based on the
Department's involvement in these groups, appropriate action related to
sensors and other assets is directed in support of arms control and
nonproliferation objectives (see box). In 2004, the Department will
release the World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers (WMEAT)
Report for 2003, which will contain CY 2002 updates. The WMEAT is widely
used by the Department, other USG agencies, academia, and other
countries to conduct analyses of world military trade.

In an effort to improve the Department's ability to coordinate arms
control, nonproliferation, and political-military efforts with other USG
agencies, foreign governments, international organizations, and U.S.
delegations abroad, ten classified and unclassified videoconferencing
systems have been installed in the Department and at select military
locations where Department personnel are stationed. The Department has
also installed operational video systems at the U.S. Missions in Geneva
and Vienna, the U.S. Mission to the UN in New York, the Harry S Truman
Building, State Annex 1, and at five military locations.

The Department will continue its work to ensure that the Nuclear Risk
Reduction Center (NRRC) system resources, operational procedures, and
trained personnel are available and ready to support new arms control
and nonproliferation agreements and commitments as they are negotiated
and become operational. To this end, the Department will maintain
critical round-the-clock staffing, while increasing automation of
message processing to meet notification requirements. Work will also
proceed on the development of an emergency back-up communications site
outside of the Harry S Truman Building to meet NRRC requirements for
communications with sites in Russia and the NIS countries.

### Public Benefit

Americans face growing security threats, both at home and abroad, from
international terrorist networks and their allies in the illegal drug
trade and international criminal enterprises. Illegal drugs impose a
staggering toll, killing more than 19,000 Americans annually and costing
more than \$160 billion in terms of law enforcement, drug-related heath
care, and lost productivity. This is in addition to the wasted lives;
the devastating impact on families, schools, and communities; and the
generally corrosive effect on public institutions. In the President's
words, "Illegal drug use threatens everything that is good about our
country." International crime groups, although they attract less media
attention, rival the threat posed by narcotics traffickers.
International trafficking in women and children, smuggling of migrants
and contraband, money laundering, cybercrime, theft of intellectual
property rights, vehicle theft, public corruption, environmental crimes,
and trafficking in small arms cost U.S. taxpayers and businesses
billions of dollars each year. Some experts estimate that non-drug crime
accounts for half of the estimated\
\$750 billion of money laundered each year in the United States. The
events of 9/11 and their aftermath highlight the close connections and
overlap among international terrorists, drug traffickers, and
transnational criminals. All three groups seek out weak states with
feeble judicial systems, whose governments they can corrupt or even
dominate. Such groups jeopardize peace and freedom, undermine the rule
of law, menace local and regional stability, and threaten the United
States and its friends and allies.

To meet these challenges, the Department supports a robust and
comprehensive range of bilateral, regional, and global initiatives and
assistance programs to build up the law enforcement capabilities of
foreign governments so they can help stop these threats before they
reach U.S. soil. In the case of drug trafficking, this means
strengthening the ability of key source and transit countries such as
Colombia, Afghanistan, Peru, and Bolivia to destroy drug crops, disrupt
operations, dismantle organizations, arrest and imprison leaders, and
seize assets while helping to help provide economic alternatives for
farmers. To help extend the U.S. security perimeter beyond our immediate
borders, the Department helps selected other countries strengthen their
own borders and gateways against drug and people traffickers,
terrorists, and other criminal groups, whether in Mexico, the Caribbean,
or countries neighboring on Afghanistan. The Department also works with
the UN, the Organization of American States, the G-8, the EU, and other
international entities to set international counterdrug and anti-crime
standards and norms, coordinate collective actions, remove safe havens,
close jurisdictional and enforcement gaps between countries, and share
the financial and political burden of combating such threats. In
carrying out these programs, the Department works closely with more than
a dozen other USG agencies, including the Departments of Justice,
Defense, Homeland Security, and Treasury; DEA; CIA; FBI; BCBP, the Coast
Guard; and USAID.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

![](media/image10.wmf){width="2.75in" height="1.8925196850393702in"}The
primary target of the Department's counterdrug effort is cocaine and
heroin trafficking out of the Andean Ridge, particularly Colombia, which
provides 90 percent of the cocaine and approximately 40 percent of the
heroin entering the United States. Building on the record-setting 2002
year, during which coca cultivation in Colombia declined by
approximately 15 percent, Department-supported eradication and
alternative development programs will lead to increased destruction of
drug crops and a reduction in net cultivation. Law enforcement,
including border assistance to neighboring states will help prevent
spillover caused by increased counterdrug and counterterrorism
activities in Colombia. Training, equipment, and technical assistance
for source and transit states will strengthen their ability to interdict
drug shipments and break up trafficking organizations. U.S. delivery of
the last round of major equipment under Plan Colombia will enable the
Colombian Army (COLAR) and the Colombian National Police (CNP) to carry
out a more vigorous counternarcotics program. A significantly expanded
spraying program in Colombia will reduce overall cocaine production,
even in the event of extensive replanting. Expanded U.S. Congressional
authorities and the recognition that the battles against narcotics and
terrorism are inexorably linked will mean an expanded U.S. role in
combating terrorist/insurgent groups in Colombia. By 2004, a more mobile
COLAR counterdrug brigade will strike high-value targets such as the
narco-terrorist leadership and key narco-terrorists involved in the drug
trade wherever they are located, provide improved protection for
critical infrastructure such as pipelines, and rescue victims of
kidnappings by narco-terrorist groups. Resumption of the air
interdiction program will deny traffickers the use of Colombian and
Peruvian airspace. Meanwhile, the Department's justice sector
institutional development programs will provide increased transparency
and accountability in the public sector as well as improved protection
for human rights.

The renewal of the opium trade in Afghanistan, which finances a range of
terrorist and other illegal armed groups, threatens the stability of
both the new Afghan government and the region, especially the newer
Central Asian states of the former Soviet Union. The United States and
its partners are rebuilding the Afghan national police and
reestablishing key judicial institutions. Although the rebuilding will
still be underway in 2004, police and counternarcotics units should be
increasingly capable of operating throughout the country by the end of
the year. An expanded alternative development program will attack the
opium trade from the economic side, improving economic infrastructure
and offering alternative livelihoods.

Drug traffickers, terrorists, and international crime groups launder and
move funds secretly. In the wake of the events of 9/11, the United
States embarked on an accelerated program to identify and assist
countries most at risk for terrorist financing. By the end of 2004, the
Department plans to help eighteen priority states tighten their
anti-terrorist financing regimes.

Each year, more than 700,000 people, primarily women and children, are
trafficked across international borders, and become subject to sexual,
economic, or other forms of exploitation. Some 50,000 of them are
brought to the United States. To combat this form of modern day slavery,
the Department helps vulnerable countries strengthen their
anti-trafficking laws and enforcement. This includes guidance for
drafting anti-trafficking laws; training for government officials,
medical personnel, and NGOs; helping set up specialized police units and
child-friendly interview rooms; and providing key equipment, such as
forensic rape kits. In 2004, Department assistance will lead to
increased prosecutions of traffickers, enhanced victim protection, and
improved coordination between source and destination countries. Working
with the Department of Justice and other USG agencies, the Department
will coordinate interagency intelligence on trafficking and support
disruption operations against significant migrant smuggling/trafficking
networks, including migrant smugglers who facilitate terrorist travel,
in cooperation with key foreign governments.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

Multilateral cooperation is crucial for combating drugs and crime. Once
negotiations for a UN Convention on Corruption have been completed (the
target date is 2003), the Department will provide political and
financial support for ratification and implementation. The Department
will also continue to push for regional anti-corruption cooperation in
key regions, such as the Middle East, the Caucasus/Central Asia, and
Africa to set regional standards, to monitor and evaluate performance of
member states, and to press members to enact anti-corruption laws and
practices. By the end of FY 2004, the first stage -- discussion and
review of specific proposals for mutual evaluation mechanisms on
corruption -- should be well advanced. When the UN Convention Against
Transnational Crime enters into force, expected in 2003, the Department
will support the Conference of Parties to address implementation and
provide assistance to requesting states. With Department support, CICAD,
the Spanish acronym for the anti-drug agency of the OAS, will continue
to refine the Mutual Evaluation Mechanism by conducting a second survey
in 2004 to provide a more detailed accounting of how well member states
implement international and regional drug conventions and agreements.
Based on the results, member states will exert peer pressure on laggards
to bring their anti-drug laws and practices up to standard.

In addition to combating terrorist financing in the wake of the events
of 9/11, the United States will continue to address money laundering by
"traditional" international crime groups. The United States will work
with other Financial Action Task Force (FATF) members to graduate the
fifteen countries now on the list of Non-cooperating Countries and
Territories (NCCT) by helping them establish anti-money laundering
regimes that meet FATF standards. The Department will also continue to
support existing and encourage the creation of new regional FATF-like
bodies to promote regional cooperation and monitoring.

When the United States is President of the G-8 in 2004, the Department
will use the U.S. chairmanship of the Crime (Lyon) and Counterterrorism
(Roma) Experts Groups to combat international crime and terrorism by
establishing a shared database to combat internet child exploitation,
developing agreed principles on critical information infrastructure
protection, and moving to the implementation stage of an (expected) 2003
agreement on biometrics.

The Department will build on new cooperative relationships with Central
Asian countries to support anti-money laundering, border control, and
criminal justice assistance programs. Specifically, U.S. assistance to
Pakistan will expand border security, strengthen police and criminal
justice institutions, and help develop a national anti-money laundering
regime. Delivery of additional helicopters to border units in 2004
should further enhance mobility. The Department will also build on new
cooperative relationships with other Central Asian countries to support
law enforcement programs in the areas of anti-money laundering, border
control, and criminal justice assistance.

Increased law enforcement and related assistance for Mexico in 2004 is
designed to strengthen the prosecutorial sector of the judicial system
to keep pace with the increased targeting of major trafficking groups;
iron out judicial obstacles to extradition; and improve border security
against traffickers, alien smugglers, and other criminals. The Third
Border Initiative to help Caribbean states improve control over travel
documents, including machine-readable passports, will encompass three
additional countries.

(ILEA) and bilateral training, updated regularly to reflect new issues
such as terrorism, trafficking in persons, and environmental crime, will
continue to be a key tool for the professionalization of foreign law
enforcement counterparts. By 2004, a new ILEA tentatively planned for
Costa Rica should be operational. The adjacent chart shows that about
300 additional officials will be trained at ILEAs during FY 2004.

The Department will continue to strengthen U.S. capacity to provide
civilian police, advisors, trainers, and justice experts to
international peacekeeping and related missions in the Balkans, East
Timor, and Afghanistan, and will expand the number of "ready roster"
(pre-trained and fast-deploying) civilian police from 500 to 750 in
2004.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Encourage ratification of Convention Against Transnational Organized
Crime**

-   Provide assistance both bilaterally and through relevant
    international organizations to requesting states to help them bring
    laws into compliance.

-   Press other countries to ratify during relevant multilateral and
    bilateral meetings.

**Convention Against Corruption completed and opened for signature**

-   Assign relevant Department and interagency experts to lead and
    support negotiations.

-   Coordinate closely with key states, including G-8, to pursue common
    goals and meet U.S. objectives.

**Train officials at ILEAs and through bilateral programs---ILEA: 2,400;
bilateral: 15,000**

-   The opening of an ILEA in Costa Rica will increase ILEA training
    capacity.

-   ILEA curriculum development includes input from Washington agencies
    as well as feedback from participating countries.

-   Bilateral training depends on requests from missions and will
    continue to be linked to in-country projects.

**Give 1,800 law enforcement officials counternarcotics training.**

-   Department depends primarily on posts for training requests.

-   Training will continue to be project-based.

**Increase the number of regional anticorruption frameworks to eight by
the addition of the Middle East Governance Framework and the Caucasus
Framework**

-   Develop and integrate anticorruption policies as part of the U.S. --
    Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI).

-   Convene meetings with the World Bank, OECD, and regional partners to
    elevate discussion on good governance.

-   Work with Middle Eastern governments to implement effective
    anticorruption strategies.

-   Create more resources to strengthen capacity to reduce corruption in
    the region.

**Financial Action Task Force (FATF) removes all but two countries
placed on list before 2003**

-   Support face-to-face FATF meetings that working groups have with
    listed countries to assess their progress and commitment for coming
    into compliance with FATF recommendations.

-   Provide technical assistance that will enable countries that are
    committed to coming into compliance, do so.

**Total number of parties to the 1988 UN Drug Convention is 175
countries.**

-   Continue to stress the importance of the Convention to international
    counternarcotics efforts

-   At bilateral and multilateral meetings, urge non-signatory states to
    become parties

### Summary: Verification/Validation and Cross Cutting Activities 

+--------------+-------------------------------------------------------+
| ##### Perfor | International trafficking in drugs, persons, and      |
| mance Goal 1 | other illicit goods disrupted and criminal            |
|              | organizations dismantled.                             |
+==============+=======================================================+
| **           | -   Cultivation levels are perhaps the most simple    |
| Verification |     and direct gross indicator of the production of   |
| and          |     crop-based illicit drugs. The CIA's Crime and     |
| Validation** |     Narcotics Center (CNC) provides crop estimates    |
|              |     for Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, Mexico, and          |
|              |     Afghanistan. CNC estimates assume that all of the |
|              |     crop has reached harvestable age. Estimating the  |
|              |     amount of raw product that is actually harvested  |
|              |     is extremely difficult without routine access to  |
|              |     narcotics farmers. What any farmer actually       |
|              |     harvests during any given year depends on         |
|              |     numerous factors, including the maturity of the   |
|              |     plants, eradication efforts, available labor and  |
|              |     market demand. Host governments provide estimates |
|              |     for other countries, or in some cases, other      |
|              |     governments and the UN.                           |
|              |                                                       |
|              | -   Estimates of potential production for selected    |
|              |     countries offer a refinement over cultivation     |
|              |     levels because the former include key data        |
|              |     gathered directly from narcotics farmers and      |
|              |     others on the ground. However, the periodic       |
|              |     nature of the ground surveys means that there is  |
|              |     a time lag before new developments, e.g., an      |
|              |     expanded spraying program, are fully reflected in |
|              |     the production estimates. The Department's annual |
|              |     International Narcotics Control Strategy Report   |
|              |     (INCSR) includes estimates of production levels   |
|              |     for most countries in both hectares and metric    |
|              |     tons and can be accessed on the Department's      |
|              |     website.                                          |
|              |                                                       |
|              | -   The Department uses FATF standards to measure the |
|              |     effectiveness of anti-terrorist financing         |
|              |     regimes. Verification is provided by USG experts  |
|              |     who may also consult with other experts.          |
|              |                                                       |
|              | -   Trafficking in persons is a relatively new law    |
|              |     enforcement issue and is little understood in     |
|              |     many countries, even among those with             |
|              |     long-standing trafficking problems. The various   |
|              |     TIP indicators are part of a comprehensive        |
|              |     strategy to provide teeth to the annual TIP       |
|              |     Report by increasing public awareness to the      |
|              |     issue in general, identifying problem areas in    |
|              |     specific countries, and offering assistance to    |
|              |     help develop or improve anti-trafficking laws and |
|              |     practices. TIP Office will provide verification.  |

### Public Benefit

The Department has no more vital responsibility than the protection of
American citizens. Approximately 3.2 million Americans reside abroad,
and Americans make about 60 million trips outside the United States each
year. The Department issues a passport that gives Americans the freedom
to travel internationally and is a symbol of the protection that the USG
provides its citizens.

U.S. embassies and consulates provide a range of services that protect
U.S. citizens from the cradle to the grave. The Department must plan for
the unexpected and be prepared to respond to crises abroad,
transportation disasters, and other situations in which U.S. citizens
need assistance, including incidents of terrorism and other serious
crimes such as hostage taking, homicide, assault, domestic violence,
child abuse, and international parental child abduction. The Department
ensures that host governments take steps to protect Americans from crime
and unrest; develop effective investigative, prosecutorial, and other
judicial capabilities to respond to American victims of crime; and
expand their cooperation and information sharing with the United States
in order to prevent terrorist attacks on U.S. citizens. The Department
also works with foreign governments, other USG agencies, and
international organizations on transportation security initiatives.

To alert Americans to conditions that may affect safety and travel
abroad, the Department disseminates threat assessments to posts abroad
and announcements to the public as quickly as possible using all
available means. The Department uses its websites and the Overseas
Security Advisory Council (OSAC), a government-private sector
partnership, to foster creative solutions to security‑related issues
affecting U.S. private sector interests abroad and to share USG threat
information and security expertise overseas to protect their personnel,
property, proprietary information, and other assets. The Department is
making its websites increasingly accessible and interactive.

### Summary of Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Department will continue training consular officers, enhancing the
systems that they use to provide services to Americans, and otherwise
preparing them to assist Americans in need. The Department will enhance
its crisis management capability and ability to track how many U.S.
citizens abroad are victims of terrorism and other serious crimes such
as kidnapping, homicide, rape, assault, and child abuse. The Department
will continue to provide American businesses and private organizations
with a forum to address their security concerns via the Overseas
Security Advisory Council. As a result of these efforts, at the end of
2004, Americans will be better equipped to deal with the uncertainties
of life abroad, and the Department will be better equipped to help when
they encounter trouble.

![](media/image12.wmf){width="2.75in" height="1.8925196850393702in"}The
Department plans to expand the Consular Call Center's scope to provide
routine and non-Privacy Act information regarding the safety and welfare
of American citizens abroad. Thus, by the end of FY 2004, case officers
will no longer have to spend large amounts of time on routine inquiries
and can devote the majority of their time helping Americans who face
difficulties abroad. To improve the ability of Americans to make
informed decisions about personal security in foreign countries, the
Department will revise all Consular Information Sheets on an annual
basis by the end of FY 2004.

The Department will improve its ability to collect registration
information and make it accessible to the field by creating an Internet
site allowing Americans to register their travel plans. Providing the
option of registration on-line will encourage more Americans to register
their presence abroad, improving the chances of being able to contact
them in an emergency and to offer assistance. By the end of 2004,
enhancements to the on-line registration system will also deliver travel
safety information about the countries on their itinerary to citizens
when they register.

The Department will focus on implementation of the Hague Intercountry
Adoption Convention in 2004. In accordance with the Convention and U.S.
implementing legislation, the Department will assume new
responsibilities and roles, including oversight of an accrediting entity
(or entities) for intercountry adoptions and mechanisms for registering
complaints concerning adoption service providers. The Department will
seek contractual support for discrete or one-time functions, such as the
development of training and informational materials. It is anticipated
that the treaty will enter into force for the United States in 2004. At
the end of FY 2004, as a result of the Department's efforts, the
Convention will govern American adoption from fifty countries; protect
the rights of children and parents; and help Americans avoid the child
trafficking, fraud, corruption, and other irregularities that have
disrupted intercountry adoptions in the past.

The Department will continue to expand the Voting Assistance Program to
increase overseas absentee voter participation in the 2004 elections.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Revise all Consular Information Sheets on an annual basis.**

-   Expand the services provided by the contractor-operated Call Center,
    freeing Department staff to create and update information more
    frequently.

**Deliver Consular Information Program documents via the on-line
registration system to U.S. citizens when they register.**

-   Develop a standard, worldwide Internet site allowing American
    citizens to register with any post or to record itineraries and
    emergency contacts for short trips abroad.

-   Make the Internet-based Registration Service easy to use and ensure
    that functionality, technical, and security aspects are aligned with
    Department directives, integrated with current and future consular
    systems, and facilitate the sharing of travel information among
    consular sections and systems.

-   Complete and deploy additional functionality, including the ability
    to collect long‑term registrations for overseas posts and provide
    information to registrants.

**Select accrediting agency/agencies to process all adoption providers
that qualify for accreditation; deposit U.S. instruments of accession.**

-   Assign more staff to this area and obtain contractual support for
    discrete or one-time functions.

-   Promulgate regulations establishing accreditation/approval
    standards, criteria, and procedures; designate one or more entities
    to accredit U.S. adoption agencies for intercountry adoptions and
    approve other bodies and persons wishing to provide adoption
    services covered by the Convention.

-   Create a computerized case-tracking system for U.S. intercountry
    adoptions, both incoming and outgoing.

-   Establish a program to share information with adoption service
    providers, state courts and public authorities, the U.S. adoption
    community, and future adoptive parents concerning their role in
    compliance with the requirements of the Convention, the implementing
    legislation, and federal regulations.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

A major near-term focus will be the development of a system to introduce
biometrics into the U.S. passport. The Department anticipates that,
because of U.S. requirements in the Enhanced Border Security and Visa
Entry Reform Act that mandate the adoption of biometrics in foreign
travel documents used to enter the United States, other nations will
implement reciprocal requirements for U.S. visitors. The Department will
work with other nations to develop biometric standards for passports and
in 2004 will begin to develop systems and procedures to collect
biometrics. The need to incorporate biometrics and other security
devices will require a redesign of the U.S. passport so that it can
include a device, such as an embedded chip, onto which the biometric
data can be written. By 2004, the Department will have taken the first
steps toward a more secure passport that can be linked to the true
bearer by biometric technology, making use by impostors virtually
impossible.

By 2004, the Department will modify the systems used at posts to enable
electronic transmission of passport application data, including digital
photographs, from overseas posts to a domestic passport office to cut
down on processing time and maximize the number of passports issued in
the more secure, digitized format. The Department anticipates
processing\
7.1 million passport applications in 2003 and 7.6 million in 2004.
Workload projections show that yearly passport demand could rise to more
than 9 million by 2008, which exceeds the production capacity of the
existing infrastructure. In the interim, the Department will construct
and equip a passport facility in the western United States to meet the
anticipated demand for passports.

To further homeland security initiatives, the Department will continue
through 2004 a project to image digitally 32 million passport records
dating from 1994 to 1999, 450,000 lookout files relating to persons who
may not be issued passports or whose applications require special
scrutiny, and 200,000 citizenship and loss of nationality files. The
scanning of applications for older but still valid passports and other
important citizenship documents will provide the benefit of making
images as well as data available to consular offices worldwide, adding
speed and security to the passport process and contributing to homeland
and border security.

Photo substitution is now more difficult with the photodigitized
passport; the Department will continue to identify ways to enhance the
physical integrity of the passport. In addition to maintaining document
security, the Department must now close the loop on fraud perpetrated
during the application process. The Department has done preliminary work
with the Social Security Administration (SSA), which is establishing
connections with the vital records offices of the fifty states. The
Department expects to have electronic access to SSA data by 2004.
Beginning in FY 2004, the comparison of documents and information
provided by passport applicants against the original records held by
other agencies will be an important step toward greater integrity of the
passport adjudication process by minimizing the potential for
breeder-document fraud. The Department will continue efforts to detect,
investigate, and seek assistance from U.S. attorneys to prosecute
passport fraud.

### Means and Strategies

**Prepare for 2005 roll out of the system by developing software,
conducting initial procurement, and beta testing for biometrics
collection.**

-   Identify the security devices that will be embedded in the new
    passport and complete the design for the passport.

-   Sign new MOUs with application acceptance facilities, the Bureau of
    Engraving and Printing, the Government Printing Office (GPO) and/or
    other partners in the passport process, as necessary.

-   Establish a contractual source for public key infrastructure and key
    management that will be necessary for the digital signing of the
    documents and the control of keys with agencies and other
    governments that will read the passport.

-   Procure and install systems and equipment to capture and enroll
    personal biometrics at passport agencies and application acceptance
    facilities, transfer biometric data securely from enrollment
    locations to issuance facilities, check data against existing
    records, and store data on-board the passport and in the
    Department's electronic records systems.

**Check 35 percent of applications against SSA death records.**

-   Identify the fields that might be used in the data exchange process
    to confirm identities.

-   Negotiate a MOU or other arrangement with SSA to establish a data
    link that would provide the Department with access to current Social
    Security number data and death records.

-   Work with SSA to expand the Vital Records Verification Project.

### Public Benefit

Extending and defending democracy has long been a centerpiece of U.S.
foreign policy. The United States recognizes that a world composed of
democracies will better protect America's long-term national security
than a world of authoritarian or chaotic regimes. The rule of law, open
markets, more prosperous economies, and better-educated citizens are all
benefits of a democratic form of government, but democratic governance
also ensures a more peaceful, predictable world -- a great and lasting
benefit to the United States.

Over the past two decades, there has been an unprecedented expansion of
the number of democracies in the world. Nevertheless there are still too
many governments that routinely ignore international human rights and
democratic norms, serving as breeding grounds for instability and
terror.

Governments that rule by force and violence against their own people are
also the most likely to threaten and intimidate their neighbors. In an
age when the destructive capacities of brutal regimes exceed national,
and even regional boundaries, addressing human rights violations --
whether episodic or systemic -- becomes imperative to the assurance of
security throughout the international community. On a smaller scale,
governments that breach their constitutional obligations and the rule of
law place the well-being of their societies at risk for the short-term,
but ultimately illusory, objective of stability.

Although democratization must ultimately be a process driven by a
society's citizenry, the United States can -- indeed must -- be an
active catalyst for democratic reform. Working closely with other USG
agencies such as the Departments of Commerce, Defense, and Labor, as
well as numerous NGOs that work to promote democracy and human rights
around the world, the Department and USAID will implement this objective
knowing that any country that persists in abusing its citizens' rights
will remain a threat to the long-term security of the United States.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

Safeguarding democracy means working with other governments and
non-governmental groups to create the conditions that make societies
healthy, strong, and vibrant -- societies in which ordinary citizens
flourish and tyrants and terrorists cannot thrive. Democratic ideals and
values give voice to a fundamental yearning in every human being --
freedom and dignity to make a better life for oneself and one's
children.

The Department must radically reshape the incentives for
democratization. The President's proposed Millennium Challenge Account
(MCA) does just this by breaking the mold of how foreign assistance is
delivered. The Department will work with MCA-eligible countries to
strengthen their democracies and expand on their successes through a
demonstrative effect by being examples for other countries. Although the
success of the Department's advocacy starts with a renewed dedication to
encouraging democracy, it must build on the practical work of geographic
prioritization and comprehensive integration of policy with programming.

By combining diplomatic efforts with innovative programs, the Department
will endeavor to promote elections, government institutions and their
transparency, and broader political and civil society participation in
the Muslim world, including Central Asia and what had been considered
the "democratic exception" of the Middle East. The Middle East
Partnership Initiative will be a critical component of the Department's
actions to strengthen democracy, civil society, and the rule of law in
the region.

The Department will also work to encourage democratic development in
China as that country seeks to cope with social and political demands
that may accompany the rapid economic changes taking place there.
Efforts will include pressing for individual liberty and structural
reforms in governance.

In Latin America, the Department will work to ensure that a democracy
dividend resulting from reduced corruption, increased legitimacy of
political institutions and better governance slows the deterioration of
public support for democracy and free market values. The Department will
continue to support organizations that promote government transparency
and accountability.

Africa, where the picture is much more mixed, will require a more
nuanced approach. The Department will seek opportunities to enhance
democratic reform efforts, including strengthening the weak governmental
institutions and the elements of civil society in fragile democracies.
The Department will work with reformers in authoritarian strongholds
such as Zimbabwe to increase the number of democratic states.

In a world marching toward democracy, the United States is a leader, a
partner, and a contributor. The Department will work with other
democratic governments to reform multilateral forums such as the\
UN Commission on Human Rights. The Department will also look beyond
these more traditional bodies to create new multilateral mechanisms to
challenge the rest of the world to live up to internationally recognized
democratic standards.

Through the Community of Democracies and regional "democracy caucuses"
the Department will seek to expand the human rights consensus beyond the
rhetoric of treaty ratification to actually changing the reality on the
ground. Regional organizations like the Organization of American States
(OAS) and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE)
have enlisted in the struggle for democracy, and USG collaboration with
these organizations will cement progress and deepen support for
democratic norms.

internationally accepted norms continues to be a powerful tool, for
citizens who refuse to accept empty promises and demand accountability
from their governments, and for the international community in its
efforts to promote stability and rally against the threats of
non-compliance.

Promoting democratic governance remains the best way to ensure
protection of human rights. At the same time, the United States will
remain a leading human rights defender, speaking out publicly and
forthrightly through such instruments as the *Country Reports on Human
Rights Practices* and the *International Religious Freedom Report*. The
Department will not simply rely on "naming and shaming", but will
develop and implement bilateral strategies to create progress where
human rights abuses persist.

Within the USG, the Department will work to ensure increased
coordination on human rights programs and initiatives among its bureaus
and other USG agencies.

The Department will provide enhanced training for foreign affairs
officers on human rights issues, especially using the Human Rights and
International Religious Freedom Reports as case study material.
Department employees in Washington and at missions abroad will have
enhanced capabilities to collect, evaluate, and report on human rights
abuses and develop strategies to reduce them. U.S. diplomatic strategies
on human rights will continue to include pressing governments with poor
human rights records to move toward full observation of internationally
respected human rights standards and norms, through bilateral engagement
and multilateral human rights mechanisms.

The Department will work to improve and expand the number of
multilateral forums addressing human rights issues, including the UN
Commission on Human Rights and the Community of Democracies. The
Department will continue to support UN Special Rapporteurs and the High
Commissioner for Human Rights in their work to address issues on the
global and country-specific levels.

Recognizing the importance of international religious freedom, the
Department will work to fulfill the mandates of the International
Religious Freedom Act (IRFA). The Department will expand its dialogue
with countries of particular concern for international religious freedom
in order to improve the religious freedom situation in the
worst-performing countries.

The Department will promote development of and respect for voluntary
business codes of conduct, internationally recognized worker rights; and
the rule of law. The Department will encourage unions and labor
organizations to work transparently and democratically to represent
worker interests in a market-based, liberalized economy. Such efforts
will raise the level of workers' protection according to internationally
recognized standards, in a way in which flexibility and buy-in from
multiple stakeholders results in policies best suited to local
circumstances.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**UNCHR adopts a majority of U.S.-priority country-specific resolutions
as well as the fifth consecutive democracy resolution and/or new
democracy-development resolution. The United States successfully opposes
moves to eliminate country-specific resolutions.**

-   Build coalitions to uphold country resolutions and thematic
    resolution on democracy.

-   Develop and implement reforms to UNCHR procedures and mechanisms.

-   Convene CD like-minded participants during and beyond UNCHR to
    collaborate on country and thematic resolutions.

-   Work with new High Commissioner and assist in development of
    indicators for UNCHR mechanisms.

**Continue to decrease the number of UNCHR member states with negative
records.**

-   Press for recognition of standards of human rights performance and
    accountability in the selection of future members.

-   Engage CD and/or regional groups to set and implement criteria for
    membership and for endorsement by international bodies.

-   Propose reforms to subcommission to clarify and limit terms of
    membership.

**Reports from all affected countries reflect new guidance regarding
Leahy compliance.**

-   Ensure accuracy of reports through clear instruction and feedback.

-   Continue clarification of instructions.

-   Select and disseminate "best practices" to encourage better
    reporting.

-   Develop and deploy a consolidated databank that draws on internal
    Department, post, and independent external reporting.

**Implement HRR-based programs. CRA officers visit posts to assess
programs. Reports by CRA on program implementation. Add Arabic
translation of the HRR. More posts in Middle East put translated HRRs on
their websites.**

-   Sharpen focus of reports to allow for better use.

-   Extend pilot project for revised drafting and editing procedures to
    all 196 country reports.

-   Increase consultations with desks/posts to explain new procedures.

-   Redraft HRR instructions to reflect new format.

-   Continue outreach to U.S. ambassadors on HRR/U.S. foreign policy
    strategy.

-   Continue outreach to key congressional staffers to explain new
    format and solicit comments.

-   Increase travel to regions to report on programs.

-   Implement routine translation procedures with Language Services and
    IIP in the Department.

**Maintain U.S. influence on legislation. Have fewer people detained and
imprisoned for religious reasons in three target countries. Have two
additional bilateral IRF negotiations and discussions with three allies
on promoting IRF. Senior officials in the Department and at posts
advocate IRF. Interfaith dialogue expands because of IRF effort in
target country for each IRF officer.**

-   Seek opportunities to influence laws on religious freedom.

-   Use the threat of CPC-designation to enter into negotiations with
    countries about taking measures to avert designation.

-   Meet with allies in their home countries or at international
    meetings to seek common approaches and support for IRF issues.

    outreach program with NGOs in the United States or in a target
    country.

-   Each IRF staffer works with post in one target country on one
    reconciliation project.

-   Each IRF staffer works with faith-based groups, multilateral
    institutions, and government officials from a target country to
    amend a restrictive law or prevent enactment of harsher law.

**IRF reports recognized for high-quality reporting. Expand analysis
either in report introduction or in separate op-ed piece for major U.S.
newspaper or other widely circulated publication. Multilateral
institution agrees to new resolution or conference reporting on IRF or
IRF-related issue, due to U.S. intervention.**

    Department's reporting on IRF issues.

-   Continue outreach to NGOs to improve contacts to facilitate
    reporting.

**Have new companies and southern tier governments join Voluntary
Principles (VPs). Establish an in-country VP working group in Indonesia
and begin implementation of VP in Angola. Launch PESP pilot program in
China or Vietnam to improve worker rights. Harmonize codes so that there
are more factories inspections and worker rights are
strengthened[.]{.underline}**

Muslim world.**

-   Identify and assist emerging unions and leaders; advocate legal
    environments that permit labor organization.

-   Advance multilateral initiatives for promoting labor rights.

-   Increase USG interagency cooperation on labor diplomacy.

-   Fully staff International Labor (IL) office for global coverage.

### Public Benefit

Americans have a vital interest in a strong international economy that
enhances U.S. national security by advancing prosperity, freedom, and
economic opportunity worldwide. Economic growth creates new jobs and
higher incomes for Americans and for citizens of other nations. The
Department works closely with other agencies, businesses, and NGOs to
build a strong and dynamic international economic system based on free
trade with new opportunities for American business, workers, and
farmers, and to ensure the economic security of the United States.

The United States is the world\'s largest importer and exporter. Trade
accounts for about one-quarter of the U.S. economy and reached \$2.9
trillion in FY 2002. Export growth produced about 25 percent of U.S.
economic growth during the past decade. One of every five U.S.
manufacturing workers depends on exports for a job. Exports generate 25
percent of gross cash sales for U.S. farmers and ranchers. Imports make
lower cost, competitive, quality consumer goods available, and supply
components to American industries. The United States is the largest
importer from developing countries, importing goods worth \$564 billion
in FY 2002 ‑‑ eight times greater than all official development
assistance to developing countries from all donors.

An open international system of investments means increased jobs,
productivity, and trade opportunities for Americans. In 2000, the total
accumulated stock of foreign direct investment in the United States
totaled \$1,238 trillion, and the total accumulated stock of U.S. direct
investment abroad reached \$1,245 trillion. European direct investment
in the United States amounted to \$890.6 billion, and European
affiliates employed 3.9 million Americans. U.S. investment abroad also
increases economic growth there, increasing the global market for U.S.
goods and services. Everyone wins, if the trading and investment systems
are open.

The remarkable growth and prosperity of the developed economies have
demonstrated that only a dynamic, open international trading system
based on free trade and free markets, good governance, the rule of law,
education, and health care can produce sustainable development. The new
Millennium Challenge Account (MCA), when approved by Congress, will
provide new resources to accelerate needed reforms for developing
nations that have created the conditions for growth and the reduction of
poverty by governing justly, investing in their people, and promoting
economic freedom. America is determined that everyone will participate
fully in a new era of prosperity.

The economic security and stability of the American and global economies
are closely linked to U.S. national security. To ensure U.S. economic
security, the United States is developing diversified and reliable
supplies of energy and ensuring the stability of the international
financial system and the economic stability of key allies. (See Goal 1,
Counterterrorism, and Goal 2, Homeland Security, for discussion of the
Department\'s efforts to cut off terrorist financing and protect
critical infrastructure.)

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance 

The Department will work with other USG agencies, foreign governments,
multilateral institutions (including international financial
institutions and the UN organizations), to promote higher levels of
economic growth and increased prosperity in developing nations.

The MCA initiative, announced in March 2002, will provide important
incentives for key reforms needed to make growth possible. Current
theory and vast experience show that development largely depends less on
the volume of financial flows than on the efficiency and effectiveness
with which official and private capital are used. Effective use of
capital is only possible where sound policy and institutions attract and
harness resources. Creating the right environment to enhance investment
and trade flows requires a new effort to build the capacity of
developing countries to participate fully in global capital markets and
trading systems. Governments increasingly acknowledge the need for sound
domestic policies. The United States will work with other nations and
international organizations so that countries can build the
institutional and legal systems vital to good governance that are
critical elements for development today when private capital flows and
trade are the primary sources of development finance.

Following Congressional approval, implementation and funding of the MCA
\"new compact for development\" can start in 2004. With stair-step
increases in the budget, its full funding of \$5 billion will be reached
in 2006. The MCA will help countries raise productivity and integrate
their economies into global markets by investing in areas such as good
governance, agricultural development, education, health, and enterprise
and private sector development, as well as trade and investment capacity
building. The Department will also work with other entities on
initiatives such as the 2002 Agricultural Productivity Initiative to
support international efforts to cut hunger and poverty in half by 2015,
and a G-8 anti-corruption/transparency action plan.

The Department will use bilateral contacts, international institutions,
and public diplomacy to encourage foreign governments to privatize
state-owned companies, eliminate unnecessary regulations, reduce trade
barriers, battle corruption, and improve the investment environment
through the rule of law and greater transparency. Progress here will
lead to benefits on many fronts and promote sustained economic growth.

The scores for the average developing and transitional country Growth
Competitiveness Index (GCI) of World Economic Forum are expected to
increase. Changes in the GCI reflect changes in the capacity of national
economies to achieve sustained economic growth over the medium term,
controlling for the current level of economic development. The
Department has chosen this indicator because the Department's engagement
with the World Bank Group, and regional development banks, as well as
U.S. bilateral efforts, all work towards strengthening the capacity of
countries to achieve sustainable growth in the medium to long term.

In the information technology arena, the Department will unlock the
global potential of e-commerce by promoting development and
liberalization of telecommunications, transportation, customs, and
product delivery systems, thereby promoting economic development and
greater opportunities for U.S. firms. The Department will work closely
with the United States Trade Representative (USTR), the Department of
Commerce, the Federal Communications Commission, and other USG agencies
to promote multilateral and bilateral trade liberalization in
telecommunications and e-commerce.

The Department will continue to persuade foreign governments to
eliminate monopolies, high access charges, and unnecessary regulations
in these sectors, and to encourage market-based competition. To get out
its message, the Department will use briefings for foreign media and
digital video conferences with key opinion makers.

International Telecommunications Union (ITU) recommendations and
decisions have been chosen as indicators because it is through such
mechanisms that the ITU establishes the multilateral policies, technical
rules, and standards that are critical to the global development of
telecommunications and information technologies.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Increase in Average Developing Country GCI**

-   Broad-based USG efforts to encourage developing countries to adopt
    sound economic policies, invest in their people, govern justly, and
    promote economic freedom and enterprise through programs such as the
    MCA lead to higher economic growth rates. Meeting the target will
    depend upon developing countries\' efforts, world economic
    conditions, and, to some extent, U.S. and other donors\' support.

**Begin MCA Programs**

-   In FY 2004, MCA implementation will begin, if Congress provides
    legislative authorization and funding. Implementation will consist
    of country selection based on independent criteria (FY 2003, if
    possible); consultation with selected countries on development of
    their MCA contract proposal; agreement on MCA country contracts
    which include objectives, benchmarks and controls; actual funding;
    and monitoring and evaluation for results and fiscal probity. Key
    areas of focus would include good governance, agricultural
    development, education, health, enterprise and private sector
    development, and trade and investment capacity building.

**A total of 480 ITU recommendations adopted.**

-   Promote development of new technologies, particularly in the
    deployment of advanced services, and facilitate technical and policy
    support for the Information Society through pro-active diplomacy
    prior to and at ITU meetings, and the 2003 and 2004 World Summits on
    Information Society.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Administration is pressing aggressively to strengthen U.S.
leadership on trade and investment because of its benefits to all
sectors of the U.S. economy and its crucial role in global security and
stability. The Department is working bilaterally, regionally, and
multilaterally with USTR, the Department of Commerce, and other USG
agencies to open markets for U.S. exports of goods, services, and
investment capital. If these efforts are successful, U.S. exports will
increase, creating more jobs for Americans. U.S. consumers and
businesses will enjoy the benefits of lower-priced imports.

U.S. exports of goods should rebound to nearly\
\$800 billion in 2004 as the U.S. and world economies recover from the
current economic downturn. U.S. exports of goods and services should
amount to about \$1.14 trillion.

The Department will vigorously pursue opening markets in a wide range of
areas, such as industrial goods, aviation, financial services,
telecommunications, agricultural biotechnology, and government
procurement. Adequate protection for intellectual property will also be
an important item on the U.S. agenda. The negotiations for the Doha
Development Agenda of the World Trade Organization (WTO) have\
a January 1, 2005 target for completion.

![](media/image13.wmf){width="2.6980314960629923in"
height="1.7255905511811023in"}The Department will devote significant
effort to prepare developing and transition economies for accession to
the WTO and for conclusion of the Doha Round. The adjacent chart shows
that during FY 2004, the Department will work toward the accession of
two additional members of the WTO. The Department will also contribute
to efforts to monitor the implementation of accession commitments,
including that of China. The United States hopes to conclude the Free
Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) by January 1, 2005.

In 2003, the United States begins discussions on free trade and
investment agreements (FTA) with Central America (CAFTA), Morocco, the
Southern African Customs Union (SACU), and Australia. FTA negotiations
with Chile and Singapore were concluded in January 2003. Other
negotiations may begin before 2005 as well. In January 2003, the
Department was discussing bilateral investment treaties (BITs) with
Colombia, South Korea, Peru, and Venezuela. In FY 2004, the Department
will continue its work with the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum
(APEC) economies to reduce traditional barriers to trade and investment,
and open \"new economy\" opportunities in e-commerce, information
technology and agricultural biotechnology. The Department will also use
unilateral trade benefit programs, such as the Andean Trade Promotion
and Drug Eradication Act (ATPDEA), the Caribbean Basin Trade Partnership
Act (CBTPA), and the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), to
expand trade, regional economic integration, good governance,
prosperity, and stability.

In FY 2004, the Department will conclude trade and investment framework
agreements (TIFAs) and aviation liberalization agreements as
appropriate. The Department will continue its efforts to improve access
to foreign agricultural markets, especially for biotech agricultural
products and telecommunications markets.

Advancing America's economic prosperity requires direct support to
companies that are actively engaged in doing business abroad and are
exporting to foreign markets. The Department will continue to support
U.S. companies, especially those pursuing foreign government procurement
and requiring assistance to resolve investment disputes, and to expand
trade promotion activities (with particular attention to the more than
100 posts where there is no Foreign Commercial Service presence).

In addition, the Department will engage in public-private and
government-industry collaborations to ensure that business concerns are
well represented in foreign policy considerations. The Department will
build on the models of its successes in 2002 and 2003, such as the AGOA
Business Roundtable, the U.S.-Jordan workshop on Qualifying Industrial
Zones, and the conference on Caspian Basin Energy Development, as well
as its wide-ranging and extensive political, economic, and consular risk
briefings for U.S. business.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance 

The Department will work closely with other USG agencies, business, and
U.S. friends and allies to secure stable and secure financial and energy
markets to protect America's economic security, ensuring that neither
terrorist actions nor the policies of other governments nor unexpected
financial events fundamentally damage the U.S. or global economies.

In the war against terrorism, the Department will continue to secure the
support of nations around the world; its efforts are designed to ensure
that front-line states are not threatened by economic and financial
instability and that the global economy enjoys reliable supplies of
energy at reasonable prices. The Department will work actively with
other countries, international financial institutions (IFIs), and the
private sector to ensure that front-line states receive the support
necessary to prevent financial crises or to resolve them more
effectively when they occur. Promoting regional trade will also play an
important role in promoting economic growth among key front-line states,
including Afghanistan and Pakistan.

To prevent financial disruptions from undermining the economic stability
of emerging markets, the Department will work with the IFIs to provide
advice and support to countries trying to pursue sound macroeconomic
policies, provide greater transparency, adopt prudential standards, and
keep debt levels manageable and inflation low.

Unpredictable financial crises will continue to drive much of the
Department's activity in this area. Continuing activities will include
work with the Department of the Treasury to assess and implement better
sovereign debt restructuring mechanisms and to enhance international
implementation of stronger anti-money laundering and terrorist financing
rules.

The Department will continue to work closely with the Department of the
Treasury to strengthen international financial systems. The Department
will strongly support Treasury's efforts to increase transparency and
information-sharing among international financial institutions,
increasing their efficiency and public support for their work. The
Department will also continue to play a vital role in working with
individual governments -- particularly in developing and transitional
economies -- in support of better-regulated, more transparent financial
sectors, essential to reducing the vulnerability of these countries to
financial crises.

The Department will secure reliable supplies of energy at reasonable
prices in order to foster economic growth and prosperity, and to ensure
that oil cannot be used as a weapon. The United States must deal with
some hard facts about the international oil markets. Two-thirds of
proven world oil reserves are in the Middle East. Aftershocks from
global oil supply disruptions can ripple through the global economy
because Europe and Japan, like the United States, rely on imports to
meet a growing portion of their oil needs.

Finally, reliability of supply from some producing states is a major
concern. U.S. energy security will continue to require a robust
international strategy and close cooperation with other countries.
Working with and through the International Energy Agency (IEA), the
Department will use its well-tested approach to prevent sudden
disruptions in the oil market from damaging the world economy. The
United States will maintain its own Strategic Petroleum Reserve at
appropriately high levels and ensure that other nations do so as well.
In the mid to long term, America must continue to increase and diversify
energy production in reliable producing countries. As part of this
effort, the United States will improve the climate for oil sector
investment in many countries, and actively help improve the
infrastructure necessary to gain access to relatively new suppliers in
Latin America, Africa, and the Caspian and Central Asian regions.

The Department works to improve health, education, and living conditions
in order to ameliorate people's lives worldwide. In addition to being an
important humanitarian goal in and of itself, better health is integral
to economic development, since healthy people can be more productive and
contribute to the economic growth of their communities. Better education
helps people increase productivity, understand the need for health care
and how to access it, and participate in community governance, including
environmental protection. A clean environment is essential for
individual health, which, along with sound resource management, is
critical for sustainable development. Better migration policies permit
people to emigrate in a more regular fashion, enabling individuals to
improve their living conditions and receiving countries to benefit from
the skills and backgrounds migrants have.

The Department seeks to accomplish this by negotiating and implementing
treaties and agreements; promoting partnerships among governments,
elements of civil society, academia, and the private sector; raising and
coordinating funds among major donors; and expending USG funds on direct
bilateral and multilateral assistance. The Department helps countries
and regions build capacity and sound institutions to provide healthcare
and education, better manage migration issues, and provide environmental
protection. In the area of the environment, the Department helps
countries promote access to environmental information and participation
in environmental decision-making, and combat illegal environmental
activities such as those involving forests, wildlife, hazardous wastes,
ozone depleting substances, fisheries, and maritime issues. These
efforts promote good domestic governance and the rule of law, which are
preconditions to successful and sustainable achievement of improved
conditions and alleviating poverty within countries, and improving
regional stability and sustainable development.

The Department targets its education efforts at improving conditions in
developing countries, while its environmental, health, and migration
efforts are global in reach. These initiatives often help attain both
international and domestic benefits. By combating the illegal timber
trade, the Department helps preserve valuable timber resources in
developing countries, while protecting the competitiveness of the
\$114-billion U.S. timber industry. The Department's support for
improved global fisheries management and enforcement standards helps
ensure long-term sustainability of these fisheries, provides for a level
playing field for the \$50-billion U.S. commercial fisheries industry,
and ensures long-term global access to fisheries. The negotiation of the
Cartagena Protocol helped maintain the continued growth of the
international biotech industry, leading to improved food security for
all, and protected U.S. agricultural exports valued at over \$60 billion
annually. The Department also helps protect the U.S. environment
directly by combating and mitigating the impact of invasive species,
which have cost the U.S. an estimated \$138 billion over the last
decade.

The Department works to promote orderly and humane migration flows on
the regional and inter-regional level. Legal migration contributes to
prosperity for both sending and receiving countries, including the
United States. National security and respect for the human rights of
migrants are essential components of effective migration management.

A healthy and educated world population is more likely to participate in
and promote democratic governance, economic opportunity, and
environmental and human rights protection. A sound environment is
central to health and to sustainable development, and to political and
economic security in key regions. U.S. efforts to improve these
conditions for the global population thereby also promote American
security, growth, and values.

![](media/image14.wmf){width="2.75in"
height="1.7673228346456693in"}[Disease Reduction:]{.underline} The
Department will work to catalyze effective coalitions and partnerships,
boost political and financial commitment to health, and garner public
support for health programs, particularly those aimed at fighting
infectious diseases such as HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis, and
diarrheal and respiratory diseases. This will require broad
international cooperation among physicians, scientists, and development
and health professionals. To raise and coordinate funds for
health-related efforts, the Department's Bureau of Oceans and
International Environmental and Scientific Affairs (OES) will promote
innovative public-private partnerships, and work with multilateral
agencies such as the World Health Organization (WHO); the Joint United
Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS); the Global Fund to Fight AIDS,
Tuberculosis and Malaria (The Global Fund); the World Bank and other
international financial institutions (IFIs) as well as; other major
donors. The Department will engage in public diplomacy and educational
campaigns to inform key foreign audiences about U.S. and international
efforts in support of health, and use its influence and knowledge of
individual countries to promote effective and coordinated health
efforts, including operational synergies and regional approaches. The
Department will ensure information is available at overseas posts on
global health issues such as HIV/AIDS prevention, the mitigation of
impacts from increasing illness and death, and the need for sustainable
solutions.

The Department will also help strengthen U.S. global health programs by
re-emphasizing the need for sustainable private financing along with
governmental commitment, by improving health education to empower
recipients and ensure informed decision-making, and by expanding
programs to address chronic conditions and encompass entire families,
including income earners and the elderly. In countries where maternal
and child mortality and morbidity remain particularly high, the focus
will be on reducing mortality through maternal and child health care
including pre-, post- and neonatal care; skilled birth assistance;
nutrition; vaccination; hygiene and breastfeeding education and
assistance; and other infant and child survival interventions.

The Department will also work to reduce abortion by promoting
compassionate alternatives such as adoption, by funding family planning
assistance, including provision of contraceptives and of information
about the reproductive system and the mechanisms, risks, and benefits of
family planning options, and by promoting abstinence for the unmarried.

The Department will not fund or promote abortion, abortion-related
services, or the use of abortifacients such as RU486. However, the
Department supports humane treatment and counseling for women who have
had recourse to abortion; the treatment of abortion-related illnesses or
injuries is not considered an abortion-related service. The Department
also endeavors to ensure that men take part in family planning decisions
and that parents are involved in decisions affecting their minor
children.

The Department also encourages parents to teach responsible sexual
behavior, including abstinence, fidelity, voluntary family planning, and
disease prevention efforts, in order to promote adolescent health and
well-being and prevent disease and unwanted pregnancies.

The Department will also work to eliminate violence against women
including selective abortion of females; coerced abortion, forced
sterilization and the coercive imposition of birth control; trafficking;
rape; female genital mutilation; and "honor" killings and other harmful
traditional practices. The Department will work to ensure that
international health care providers respect human rights and refrain
from coercive practices, and will institute field monitoring of UN Fund
for Population Activities (UNFPA) programs and ask the UNFPA Executive
Board to adopt guidelines and programs that prohibit coercion and
require voluntarism and informed consent.

Finally, the Department is working to help governments identify and
react appropriately to issues raised by the demographic changes facing
the world today, as described by demographers at the UN Population
Division. Within the Western collectivity, lifespans are lengthening and
fertility is falling. Except for the United States, most Western and
certain other nations are experiencing fertility that is far below
replacement level. For these nations, population aging and shrinkage are
issues that may have broad economic and social implications. Other
nations are experiencing abnormal demography caused by poor health
conditions, the impact of diseases such as HIV/AIDS, and discrimination
against women (e.g., sex-selective abortions that can result in a
significant imbalance in the gender ratio). While decisions about family
size are for families, not governments, to make, governments can play an
important role in creating political and economic conditions that allow
families to flourish, regardless of a country's overall population
demographics.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**The Global Fund continues to be viable and successful. As reported by
the Global Fund,\
25 percent of all Country Coordination Mechanisms include NGO
stakeholders as full participants in the design and implementation of
proposals. Two more foundations and one more commercial enterprise make
contributions to the Global Fund, including those at the country level.
The Global Fund conducts evaluations of grants, and half of the grant
recipients make progress toward the indicators outlined in the proposals
and the M&E framework.**

-   Play a leading role in coordinating U.S. policy toward the Global
    Fund; participate in deliberations and decisions of the Global
    Fund's Board of Directors; work with the Global Fund's Board and
    Secretariat to ensure that its policies and operations are effective
    and accountable; brief members of Congress and staff, the private
    sector, and NGOs on major developments and U.S. policies.

**Participate in UN and bilateral meetings dealing with global health
issues.**

-   Assign staff to attend these meetings, and ensure that other U.S.
    representatives to these meetings are briefed on USG global health
    policies, including policies on reproductive health.

**Brief ambassadors and other USG personnel on global health issues and
USG policy.**

-   Prepare briefing materials on global health for new ambassadors and
    other USG personnel; offer briefings to new personnel when issues
    arise.

**Seven countries stabilize or reduce rates of new HIV infections.**

-   Engage foreign diplomats and health officials to advance bilateral
    opportunities; contribute to the development of policies regarding
    the President's International Mother and Child HIV Prevention
    Initiative; seek out opportunities to use the Millennium Challenge
    Account to fight HIV/AIDS.

**Five countries decrease maternal mortality rate by at least 2
percent.**

-   Use diplomatic efforts to educate countries about the most common
    causes of maternal mortality; promote bilateral and multilateral
    policies, including the allocation of resources, targeted at
    reducing those causes ; and expend USG funds on building local
    capacity, training birth assistants, and providing direct health
    care for women giving birth.

**Monitoring trips to two countries in each region where UNFPA
operates.**

-   Ask embassy staff to assist in monitoring UNFPA programs; send
    U.S.-based staff to participate in such monitoring.

**Submit a draft of revised International Health Regulations to WHO
governing bodies and adopt it at the World Health Assembly.**

-   Review draft regulations; advocate needed changes.

**The GHSAG conducts cooperative exercises; the private sector, NGOs,
and health and science institutions, are more involved in the
introduction of new knowledge to a rapidly evolving security area.**

-   Continue to participate in the work of the GHSAG; develop a
    framework for risk communication of chemical, biological, and
    radio-nuclear (RCBN) terrorist incidents.

**Additional ten countries establish vaccine and drug stockpiles; work
with WHO to strengthen its smallpox vaccine reserve.**

-   Encourage countries, through multilateral and bilateral diplomacy,
    to develop stockpiles.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

In 2002 the Department participated in a series of multilateral fora,
including the Doha World Trade Ministerial, the Monterrey Finance for
Development Summit, and the Johannesburg World Summit on Sustainable
Development (WSSD), which created a coherent international framework for
new partnerships and innovative programs to promote the three pillars of
sustainable development (environmental protection, economic development,
and social development), based on a foundation of good domestic
governance (democratic institutions, transparency, and the rule of law).
The Department intends to follow through on developing and implementing
these goals during 2003 and 2004 in the UN and other multilateral,
regional, and bilateral fora. The Department will also work to ensure
the effective implementation of the four key signature partnerships on
water, energy, forests, and hunger, as well as many of the over 200
partnerships which emerged from the WSSD. The Department also will
promote domestic capacity in key countries for good environmental
governance.

Through the Congo Basin Forest Partnership (CBFP), which the Secretary
announced at the WSSD, the Department will help to conserve the world's
second largest tropical forest area in the world, and provide its
inhabitants with sustainable economic benefits. By 2004, the CBFP is
scheduled to have established an international data network that would
link project proposals to potential donors, and to an international data
bank that will allow the partners to maximize funds for specific
projects in the area while eliminating redundancies. In addition, by
working to develop funding agreements and public-private partnership for
on-the-ground conservation efforts under the Tropical Forest
Conservation Act (TFCA), the Department's efforts will help to stimulate
forest conservation in countries that otherwise may lack interest in
conservation.

Effective environmental protection is critical to create a level playing
field to harness trade, competition and investment for sustainable
development. Over the next two years, the Department will work to ensure
that satisfactory environmental provisions are incorporated in free
trade agreements with Morocco, the Southern African Customs Union,
Central America, Australia, and the entire Western Hemisphere, and to
negotiate and implement complementary environmental cooperation
mechanisms with Chile, Singapore and other U.S. trading partners. The
Department will also encourage its partners in the OECD to strengthen
environmental standards and transparency for export credit agencies.

Regarding climate change, in 2003-2004 the Department intends to
establish and begin implementing new partnerships with Russia, Ukraine,
South Korea, Brazil, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and other countries, as
necessary. The Department will work to identify key outcomes,
deliverables, and associated timelines and begin implementation of
partnerships with Canada, the EU, India, China, and other countries that
meet established timelines for deliverables. The Department will
complete reviews of existing partnerships, and use the lessons learned
to adjust activities to enhance effectiveness of the overall climate
change approach. By building bilateral and regional partnerships, the
Department will enhance the capacity of key countries to understand and
address global climate change.

Over the next two years, the Department will continue cooperative
efforts to promote the effective implementation of fisheries treaties
and instruments; fight illegal fishing; address fishery-related
pollution; and promote conservation of sharks, sea turtles, and other
species. Working with Australia, New Zealand, and Peru bilaterally and
through FAO and APEC, the Department will promote better science and
more effective management of the earth's deep-sea fisheries. Through
global and regional bodies, the Department will promote capacity
building activities that contribute to the scientific, legal, and
enforcement capabilities of managers in developing countries to promote
responsible fisheries and aquaculture. Through this work, the Department
will help to ensure the sustainability of the world\'s fisheries and a
level playing field for the U.S. fishing industry.

The Department will support sustainable development by building
partnerships among governments, research institutions, and industry for
science and technology (S&T) cooperation, including science-based
decision-making, environmental and biodiversity protection, marine
sciences, energy, climate, HIV/AIDS, and other health issues. In
2003-2004, the Department will work to negotiate and implement new S&T
agreements with Oman, Uzbekistan, Australia, and Pakistan; renew the S&T
agreement with Ukraine; update and expand the interactive database that
tracks activities under existing S&T agreements; and conduct a policy
review of the China S&T agreement.

    determine best practices that can be applied to other existing
    relationships and new agreements.

-   Pursue new S&T agreements at the national, multilateral, and
    regional levels that support OES-wide issues and USG agency
    mandates; and support partnerships in science, technology,
    engineering, and medical fields. Select target countries and regions
    in consultation with other USG agencies, OES offices, and the U.S.
    scientific community.

of fishery-related marine pollution, through cooperative work programs,
technical and financial assistance to developing countries. Encourage
additional states to sign or participate in existing agreements, and
develop new instruments, as needed.**

+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance 

The Department will continue its work that promotes orderly, legal, and
humane international migration through the promotion of regional
migration dialogues, capacity building programs, and support for the
International Organization for Migration (IOM). The Department will seek
to ensure that it balances human rights and protection concerns of
migrants, including those of trafficking victims, against the need for
national security and counterterrorism. The Department accomplishes this
by supporting specific projects that bolster the capacity of
governments, international organizations (especially the International
Organization for Migration), and NGOs to address these issues. The
Department's work will be closely coordinated with the Department of
Homeland Security, as appropriate.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Implement approximately 60 percent of the activities agreed upon in
the Regional Conference on Migration (RCM) and about half of the
activities agreed upon in the Intergovernmental Consultations on Asylum,
Refugees, and Migration (IGC), and the Western and Southern African
dialogues.**

-   The United States will advance proposals that are practical and
    achievable. The Department will work to advance their success and
    support appropriate projects as funds are available.

                   and Human Services, Defense, and Labor; and the Peace
                   Corps), the NSC, and the White House Office of
                   National AIDS Policy (ONAP), in the formulation and
                   implementation of U.S. global health policy. The
                   Department works particularly closely with USAID and
                   HHS on all activities concerning the Global Fund, and
                   with HHS on all activities concerning the GHSAG. The
                   Department serves, along with other partner agencies,
                   on the ONAP-led steering committee for the President's
                   International Mother and Child HIV Prevention
                   Initiative. The Department convenes interagency
                   working groups frequently to coordinate policies with
                   partner agencies.

### Public Benefit 

The U.S. commitment to humanitarian response demonstrates America's
compassion for victims of armed conflict, forced migration, human rights
violations, widespread health and food insecurity, and other threats.
The strength of this commitment derives from both our common humanity
and our responsibility as a global leader. When responding to natural
and human-made disasters, the United States complements and enhances its
efforts to promote democracy and human rights. In addition to saving
lives and alleviating human suffering, humanitarian programs support the
objectives of the U.S. National Security Strategy by addressing resource
and economic crises with potential regional (or even global)
implications, fostering peace and stability, and promoting sustainable
development and infrastructure revitalization.

The Department is a leader in international efforts to prevent and
respond to humanitarian crises. It provides substantial resources and
guidance through international and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs)
for worldwide humanitarian programs, with the objective of increasing
access to protection, promoting burden-sharing, and coordinating funding
and implementation strategies. The Department provides early warning
about potential humanitarian crises through its extensive reporting
capacity. When a humanitarian crisis does occur, the Department urges
and participates in multilateral response. Department field staff often
provide critical resources and information as humanitarian emergencies
unfold. The Department's emphasis on regular monitoring and evaluation
of humanitarian programs ensures that the needs of refugees, internally
displaced persons (IDPs), and other conflict victims are met, and that
the international community continually strives to improve its response
to their plight. Its financial support for demining activities makes
areas safe for the return of refugees and IDPs. Its management and
support of overseas refugee admissions programs provides an important
durable solution for refugees, and also serves as a leading model for
other resettlement countries.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

Crude mortality rates and child nutritional status are vital data in
refugee and other humanitarian emergencies; they indicate the severity
of a crisis, and the effectiveness of response. Department-funded
humanitarian programs prevent crude mortality and child malnutrition
rates in refugee settings from reaching the emergency level of one death
per 10,000 people per day. In exceptional cases where this effort fails
due to external factors, the Department supports urgent interventions to
reduce the major causes of mortality and malnutrition.

The Department seeks to increase the amount of food available for
humanitarian emergencies -- a significant factor in preventing mortality
and child malnutrition -- by encouraging other governments to contribute
to the World Food Program (WFP).

The Department's effort to resettle 100 percent of the allocated number
of refugees annual authorized the President for admission to the United
States to provide the maximum number of refugees in need or resettlement
world-wide with lasting protection and the opportunity to rebuild their
lives in a new home.

The Department works to prevent exploitation of humanitarian victims and
to improve accountability for refugee protection. Before FY 2004, in all
spheres of programming, Department-funded humanitarian partners will
have adopted codes of conduct and implemented anti-exploitation measures
such as awareness training for staff and reporting mechanisms to detect
fraud, waste, abuse, or exploitation in all spheres of programming.

The Department continues to work with USAID to address more effectively
the needs of IDPs. The Department also and to funds humanitarian
resettlement to Israel through the United Israel Appeal, although the
latter program is expected to decline.

![](media/image15.wmf){width="2.8854330708661418in"
height="1.9125984251968504in"}In immediate post-conflict situations,
humanitarian mine action (HMA) reduces casualties and enables refugees
and IDPs to return in safety, and allows for the delivery of other types
of humanitarian assistance, food, and medical services. HMA often serves
as a confidence-building measure, and in the long term, it fosters the
social and economic development of mine-affected nations by promoting
the health and welfare of the workforce. The clearance of agricultural
land facilitates the development of self-sufficiency in food production.
HMA opens infrastructure, allowing access to water, the rebuilding of
roads, rail lines, schools, hospitals, and power plants. Reconstruction
cannot begin while mines are still present. The adjacent chart shows
that the Department intends to clear mines from an additional 20 million
square meters of land during FY 2004.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**Do not exceed a CMR of 1/10,000 people per day during refugee
crises**.

-   Prioritize appropriate resource allocation and interventions to
    reduce the major causes of mortality in refugee settings.

-   Continue to collaborate with the Standard Monitoring and Assessment
    of Relief and Transitions (SMART) initiative and SPHERE partners to
    improve and expand data collection.

-   Encourage international and NGO partner organizations to report on
    CMR data collected.

-   Increase the number of refugee situations where data collection and
    reporting are conducted.

-   Improve data accuracy by encouraging implementing partners to adopt
    standardized surveillance methods, survey tools, and data
    triangulation.

**In humanitarian crises, children under five year of age to have
weight-for-height ratios greater than or equal to 2 standard deviations
from the mean (Z scores of greater than or equal to --2), or greater
than 80 percent median weight-for-height, and an absence of nutritional
edema.**

-   Prioritize appropriate resource allocation and interventions to
    reduce the major causes of child malnutrition in refugee settings.

-   Continue to collaborate with the Standard Monitoring and Assessment
    of Relief and Transitions (SMART) initiative and SPHERE partners to
    improve and expand data collection.

-   Encourage international and NGO partner organizations to report on
    nutritional data they have collected.

-   Increase data collection and reporting for refugee
    situations/crises.

-   Improve data accuracy by encouraging implementing partners to adopt
    standardized surveillance methods, survey tools, and data
    triangulation.

**As a percentage of the President's annual allocated ceiling, 100
percent of refugees are resettled in the United States.**

-   Identify new refugee populations in need of resettlement.

-   Actively seek/ develop new resettlement populations.

-   Train assistance NGOs to identify refugees for resettlement.

-   Provide appropriate resources to UNHCR to develop resettlement
    referrals.

-   Expedite the transmission of Security Advisory Opinion for
    resettlement applicants.

**Increase the number of donors to WFP by five, and non-U.S.
contributions by 5 percent over 2003.**

-   The USG will work with the WFP to encourage "twinning," a mechanism
    to match non-traditional donors of commodities with non-traditional
    donors of cash for the delivery of humanitarian assistance in food
    emergencies

-   With the goal of halving hunger by 2015, the USG will introduce a
    famine initiative in the G-8 to mobilize more resources, make
    available more effective tools, strengthen international cooperation
    mechanisms and analytical approaches, and focus on shared efforts to
    reduce the risk of famine and to intervene quickly to prevent its
    worst effects.

-   The USG will urge other traditional and non-traditional donors to
    initiate/increase cash or commodity contributions to the WFP.

**Reported landmine casualties in HDP program countries decrease by 5
percent.**

-   Focus resources on mine action, i.e., operational demining to locate
    and destroy landmines and other unexploded ordnance (UXO), to train
    indigenous demining groups, and to educate refugees and IDPs on how
    to live safely with a mine/UXO threat.

-   Use surveys to prioritize clearance operations for high impact
    areas.

-   Coordinate mine risk education to best inform returning refugees and
    IDPs.

**Clear mines from 230,000,000 square meters of land per year.**

-   Provide training for demining clearance to International standards.
    Training consists of providing a demining expert to train indigenous
    persons to either be a member of a demining team or to train other
    deminers. Deminers learn how to search for, locate and destroy mines
    and UXO.

-   Introduce mine detection dogs and mechanical demining to programs
    that rely solely on manual methods.

-   Provide technical assistance for mine action operations.

**Increase by four the number of program countries in sustainment or end
state.**

-   Provide technical assistance to national mine action centers.

-   Support management training for middle and senior level mine action
    managers.

-   Support train the trainer programs in demining methods.

-   Provide equipment and machinery for demining.

**Complete the effort to develop a GDIN Information Facilitator/Broker
Service.**

-   Provide 24/7 access to operational disaster information to national
    and sub-national authorities, NGOs, and UN agencies.

-   Based on GDIN access to information, provide advice to operational
    NGOs to make triage decisions that would otherwise to impossible,
    except at great cost.

### Public Benefit

> *"Information and education are powerful forces in support of peace.
> Just as war begins in the\
> minds of men, so does peace." -* President Dwight D. Eisenhower

The exchange of information, persons, and ideas is fundamental to the
foreign, economic and security policy of the United States. The
Department relies upon public diplomacy and public affairs to
understand, inform, engage, and influence foreign audiences by reaching
out beyond government-to-government relations to establish a foundation
of trust upon which specific policy and societal issues can be addressed
in a context of informed understanding and mutual respect. The public is
better served through the continuous dialogue that the Department's
outreach efforts build with communities across America. Public diplomacy
activities promote better appreciation of the United States abroad and
greater receptivity for U.S. policies among foreign publics. Through
public affairs programs, the Department also informs the American people
of U.S. foreign policy and initiatives that have a direct impact on
their lives. In a democratic society, it is imperative that the public
understands the basis of Department policies carried out on their
behalf.

The much discussed potential of public diplomacy to address
anti-American sentiment is vitally important at a time when terrorism is
such a worldwide threat and uncertainty is pervasive. In the struggle of
ideas, public diplomacy is a critical component, a rapid and flexible
capability for U.S. diplomacy abroad directed at improving understanding
of and support for U.S. policy, encouraging and empowering moderates,
and discrediting intolerance. For example, public diplomacy programs
offer a fuller picture of how religious, ethnic, and cultural tolerance
are keys to a peaceful and prosperous community of nations, and open
access to information that provides alternatives to learning extremism.

Educational and cultural exchanges, international information programs,
and public affairs activities reach current and future overseas opinion
leaders, agenda setters, decision-makers, and the larger public. Rapport
achieved through public diplomacy promotes relationships that provide
for sustained U.S. access and influence in important sectors of foreign
societies critical to achieving long-term international security and
accelerating transitions to democracy. "'Right content, right format,
right now' describes our strategic aim in seeing that U.S. policies are
explained and placed in the proper context in the minds of foreign
audiences." (Secretary of State Colin L. Powell)

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Administration's National Security Strategy (NSS) states that the
United States is in "a struggle of ideas and this is an area where
America must excel in enlisting the international community...using
effective public diplomacy to promote the free flow of information and
ideas to kindle the hopes and aspirations of freedom...." To this end,
the Department will lead the foreign affairs community to develop a
coordinated national communication strategy so that all public diplomacy
and public affairs activities promote a unified message.

Exchange programs will expose current, emerging and future leaders to
U.S. values, ideas, language, and methodologies and open dialogue with
them on important transnational and global issues. Professional exchange
programs such as the International Visitor Program and Citizen Exchange
Grants will bring decision-makers to the United States to meet with
their counterparts to discuss combating terrorism, religious tolerance,
journalistic freedom and other issues. Academic exchanges will engage
scholars, teachers, student leaders, and policy-makers in the training
of future generations. Success in influencing decision-making will
include program participants who promote and implement positive change
in their organizations as they assume increasingly senior positions of
leadership in their home societies; it will also include improved global
understanding of the values behind U.S. policy approaches, especially
the encouragement and empowerment of moderation and discrediting of
intolerance in societies at risk. Over forty current heads of state and
senior cabinet officials are alumni of the Department's exchange
programs.

International information programs will reach millions of people in
their own language on themes and issues vital to American national
interests with information and services such as the Department's
international website (usinfo.state.gov---the primary source for
information on U.S. policy and perspective), print publications and
speakers and digital videoconferences. The Department encourages users
to resuse and repackage programs to make them more effective in their
cultural contexts. International information activities both respond
rapidly to emerging crises and provide a long-term perspective. Success
will be indicated by the relevant and timely delivery of authoritative
and balanced information on U.S. opinion in context to overseas publics
and opinion leaders.

Public affairs will expand its reach to foreign audiences, particularly
those with large Muslim populations, by working with international
journalists and broadcasters to produce TV Co-Ops that document American
values, culture, issues, and life as well as cooperative television
productions that focus on U.S.-led initiatives in developing countries
and American generosity.

These activities will resonate well with local audiences because
coverage is generated from the perspective of popular and credible news
entities within each country. The Bureau of Public Affairs will acquire
high quality commercial or public television programs for placement on
foreign television stations and networks, or for educational and
informational outreach purposes. This will result in increased
programming and the expansion to larger audiences. In addition, the
Department will continue to conduct thematic reporting tours for
journalists and correspondents that do not maintain news bureaus.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**Within five years of their program experience, 76 percent of
participants will initiate or implement change in their organization or
community.**

-   Strengthen tracking of alumni through an accurate, comprehensive
    worldwide alumni database so that the Department can stay in touch
    with alumni.

-   Increase staff working on alumni affairs.

-   Provide alumni activities that focus on deepening knowledge and
    increasing skills in targeted thematic areas.

-   Provide awareness and access of International Information Program
    (IIP) materials.

-   Assess through program evaluations what types of activities alumni
    have most often engaged in to bring about change---be it introducing
    curriculum changes, publishing articles, drafting legislation,
    organizing advocacy campaigns---and develop alumni programming to
    encourage more recent alumni to undertake similar efforts.

-   Assess obstacles to reform through program evaluations and develop
    support networks and activities for alumni facing obstacles in their
    reform efforts.

-   Offer foreign program alumni opportunities to return for
    professional and educational development in the United States.

**Increase the level of international public understanding of U.S.
policies.**

-   Engage international publics about U.S. policies through
    publications, web-based media, digital videoconferencing, U.S.
    speakers, broadcast media, and reference services.

-   Reach out to publics via websites and listservs.

-   Pay comprehensive attention to important official texts,
    transcripts, fact sheets, by-liners, and other feature material in
    English, Arabic, French, Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and Farsi.

-   Sustain worldwide advocacy through 170 IRCs and enrichment of
    Washington editorial projects.

-   Sustain extensive personal interaction on the part of U.S. embassies
    and consulates worldwide.

-   Work through alumni programming to provide accurate and balanced
    information to recently returned alumni regarding U.S. policies.

**Increase unique users to Department international websites and
listservs by ten percent.**

-   Publicize and promote resources more actively for unique users,
    defined as "a session from a specific computer system, with thirty
    minutes of inactivity causing a new session to be counted."

**Increase the level of media placement in foreign markets in print,
broadcast, and radio**

-   Utilize Department broadcasting studios and access to satellites to
    reach new media outlets and increase the number of television
    productions, news reports, video news releases, mini-documentaries,
    interactive dialogues and interviews with Department principals, and
    briefings for transmission on the American Embassy Television
    Network, as well as secondary broadcasting outlets.

-   Increase the number of TV Co-Ops with foreign broadcasters from
    Muslim populated countries and third-world countries in Asia, South
    America, and Africa by working more closely with regional bureaus
    for identifying and pursuing joint funding support.

-   Acquire educational and informational programming for dissemination
    to posts from multiple sources (Discovery, PBS, etc.) on subjects
    related to positive American values.

-   Increase awareness of the scope of USG humanitarian and development
    programs through reverse co-ops in which joint television
    documentary stories are filmed and broadcast abroad.

-   Utilize multiple language versioning to maximize the audience
    outreach of selected productions.

-   Develop tracking mechanisms for monitoring placement of media
    products in foreign markets.

-   Expand the use of digital video conferencing technology to widen the
    reach of its newsmaker briefings, linking posts in countries with no
    U.S-based journalists to allow their media to ask questions.

-   Initiate a new service of thirty-second audio clips from major
    briefings, web-delivered for posts to market the material to local
    radio broadcasters and reporters for placement.

-   Maximize efforts to reach Muslim countries through television, radio
    and print by the coordination of FPC, OBS, and RMO.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

During FY 2004, the Department will use exchange programs to build
networks of informed opinion leaders in the national political,
economic, and social infrastructures of foreign countries. Exchanges
build the trust, confidence, and international cooperation with other
countries that sustain and advance the full range of American national
interests and provide foreign publics with a context for understanding
American policies that might otherwise be misunderstood.

The Department will focus on high priority areas articulated in the NSS
as non-negotiable demands for human dignity, the rule of law, limits on
the absolute power of the state, free speech, freedom of worship, equal
justice, respect for women, religious and ethnic tolerance, respect for
private property, and the right to basic education, especially for
women.

Exchanges go beyond the affirmation of these freedoms, and explain to
and learn from key foreign participants how they are best secured and
protected. The Department will work with government and university
officials, educators and private sector specialists to institute a range
of programs that will reach younger and wider audiences.

The Department will strive to increase participant levels by 26 percent
with initiatives that include,

-   Exchange programs for high school students from countries with
    significant Muslim populations,

-   Partnerships For Learning, a commitment to sustained dialogue on
    education and opportunity, that emphasizes youth, education and
    leadership development and attacks the breeding ground and
    ideological bases for terrorism by applying academic and
    professional exchanges to convey American values, shatter
    stereotypes and address anti-American sentiment.

-   Programs such as the Fulbright Program and Gilman Scholarships
    increase opportunities for U.S. citizens to experience other
    countries and cultures, and share that knowledge with
    decision-makers and the general public at home. Grant-based
    exchanges similarly increase the understanding and engagement of
    U.S. NGOs and local government.

-   Sports programming, school-to-school Internet connectivity programs,
    teacher exchanges, and curricula consultants for foreign ministries
    of education.

-   Widely expanded English teaching programs that not only meet
    worldwide demand for more English teaching, but also serve as
    effective means of communicating American values concerning civil
    society.

Success will come with increased numbers of participants \-- both U.S.
and foreign \-- maintain or increased percentages of those participants
who gain a better understanding of their host country and those who
continue to communicate and collaborate with people encountered through
their exchange experience. The adjacent chart shows that Department's FY
2004 goal is for 92 percent of exchange participants to increase
understanding of their host country.

It is hoped that a greater number of individuals who have participated
in exchange programs will ultimately attain positions of leadership in
their societies -- in government, business, academia, NGOs and the arts.
Foreign participants in exchanges demonstrate a higher acceptance of
democratic values, individual and human rights, and the rule of law.
They are less suspicious of U.S. motives, show a greater desire to
become leaders in their societies, and are less tolerant of their own
government's anti-democratic actions.

### Means and Strategies

**Immediately after their program, 78 percent of participants increase
their understanding of the host country.**

-   During exchange programs, emphasize that the exchange experience is
    only the start, and that the real work of exchange---building trust
    and lasting relationships---comes after returning home.

-   Provide information to potential program participants on new visa
    restrictions and border control reviews in the context of the U.S.
    public policy response to terrorist attack and threat and gain their
    active cooperation while implementing enhanced security for J-visa
    programs.

-   Leverage private sector funds to increase the number of exchange
    participants.

**One year or longer after their program, 75 percent of participants
remain in contact with host country people encountered during their
program.**

-   Develop alumni programming to encourage alumni to stay in contact
    with each other and the people they met on their program by means of
    websites, scheduled on-line chats, and professional and personal
    correspondence and collaboration.

**Eighty-five percent of participants share information about their
exchange experience with colleagues, friends and family.**

-   Make use of other program alumni (from crosscutting programs) to
    show newer alumni how they can creatively share their experiences
    with others.

-   Develop leadership training for alumni to enable them to share their
    knowledge with their communities more effectively.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The NSS observes, "Today, the distinction between domestic and foreign
affairs is diminishing. In a globalized world, events beyond America's
borders have a greater impact inside them" but "ultimately, the
foundation of American strength is at home." The Department will use its
public diplomacy and public affairs programs to dispel stereotypes and
misconceptions about the United States, provide accurate and balanced
information about American ideas, values, and beliefs, and build an
international community that recognizes the "non-negotiable demands of
human dignity." The Department will promote the best of what America is
and has, but with a keen sensitivity to listening to and understanding
the perceptions of those whom we would inform, engage and influence. By
the end of FY 2004, the number of people who understand and respect
universal human values identified with the United States will increase,
mitigating the level of hostility directed toward the United States and
Americans abroad.

Educational and cultural exchange programs can mobilize substantial
domestic U.S. support for international engagement through partnerships
with state and local governments, academia, businesses, and NGOs. To
accurately portray American ideals and practices, exchange programs must
maintain their nonpolitical character and must be balanced and
representative of the diversity of American political, social, and
cultural life. Academic and cultural programs must maintain their
scholarly integrity and meet the highest standards of academic
excellence and artistic achievement. Programs will provide an
opportunity for foreign visitors to interact with Americans in different
settings and on various topics including individual liberty and human
rights and democratic practices. The success of exchanges will be gauged
by the percentage of participants who express an understanding of these
values in independent surveys and polls.

The Department will work with the Smithsonian Institution and other
organizations to develop interactive, multi-media exhibits called
"American Corners," that provide access to reference materials on the
United States.

These installations will be located in selected countries with
significant Muslim populations and will provide a positive view of
American society. A more modest version of this concept, "American
Rooms," co-locates with a host country institution. Several American
Rooms are now operating in Russia. In addition, the Department will use
its capability to counter anti-Americanism with reasoned and focused
messages. By the end of FY 2004, the number of individuals abroad
willing to turn to U.S. sources for information and knowledge will
increase.

In response to the war on terrorism and the need to answer the question
of "why do they hate us", the Department's will continue its shared
values campaign, specifically targeted at countries with significant
Muslim populations. Through public relations efforts, the Department
will reinforce the messages disseminated to targeted countries in the
first wave of media flights in 2002 and work to close the value gaps in
reaching out to moderate segments of the Muslim world. The Department
proposes to conduct additional research, develop media products such as
mini documentaries and, public service announcements, and with the
placement of these media products in other Arab countries, conduct
in-country public relations efforts. By FY 2004, the Department will
reach a younger and more influential audience so that they can be
advocates of shared values. In 2004, this program will expand the
dialogue beyond the initial countries of Indonesia, Kuwait, Egypt,
Lebanon, Jordan, Malaysia, Morocco, and Pakistan to other countries
where informing, influencing, and engaging audiences is in the U.S.
national interest.

### Means and Strategies by Target 

**Three or more years after their program experience, 65 percent of
program participants demonstrate an affinity for democratic values.**

-   Structure programs that allow for discussion and observation of
    democratic values.

-   Conduct qualitative and quantitative sampling and evaluation of
    program participants; refine programs as needed.

**Increase the level of understanding of U.S. policies by international
audiences.**

-   Engage international publics about U.S. policies through
    publications, web-based media, digital videoconferencing, U.S.
    Speakers, broadcast media, and reference services.

-   Reach out via websites and listservs.

-   Pay comprehensive attention to important official texts,
    transcripts, fact sheets, by-liners, and other feature materials in
    English, Arabic, French, Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and Farsi.

-   Sustain worldwide advocacy through 170 IRCs and field amplification
    of printed and electronic materials produced in Washington.

-   Sustain extensive personal interaction on the part of American
    embassies and consulates worldwide.

-   Work through alumni programming to provide accurate and balanced
    information to recently returned alumni regarding U.S. policies.

**Targeted audiences receive intended messages.**

-   Conduct qualitative and quantitative sampling through focus groups
    and data analysis.

-   Develop media products and print collateral materials that reflect
    lessons learned and audience appeal from analysis; work with foreign
    government to place products.

-   Conduct in-country public relations efforts that reinforce
    dissemination of materials.

**Increase by 10 percent the number of unique users of Department
international websites and listservs.**

-   Publicize and promote resources more actively for unique users,
    defined as "a session from a specific computer system, with thirty
    minutes of inactivity causing a new session to be counted."

public is a critical element in a dynamic and functioning democracy.

The Department will use a variety of methods to communicate its message
and explain U.S. foreign policy to established and new audiences, and
will continue to establish relationships with both domestic and
international media outlets to broaden its reach. The Department will
expand its regional satellite media tour program, which allows a
Department principal to be interviewed consecutively by media outlets in
several cities.

Through town hall meetings, conferences with NGOs, and intergovernmental
groups, the Department will expand its outreach to ethnic groups,
particularly Hispanic and Muslim communities, geographically dispersed
around the country. Education programs will open more channels of
communication with a younger audience through involvement with
curriculum development, and the distribution of educational videos,
developed through partnerships between the Department and various
teacher associations. The Department will work toward the creation of
the United States Diplomacy Center as a focal point where the general
public can explore the pivotal U.S. role in world affairs. The museum
will inform and educate visitors about U.S. diplomatic history and the
operations of the Department.

Outreach through technology, primarily the Department's website,
[www.state.gov](http://www.state.gov/), will continue to be a dominant
tool in the dissemination of Department messages. To reach the important
and electronically savvy younger generation, the Department will launch
before the end of FY 2003a new website specifically designed for
students. The Department will continue to engage students through
innovative means such as its annual web competition and print brochures
that include crossword puzzles and other games. The Department will
continue its major effort, supported by the Secretary, to provide
updated information in the Background Notes series, the Department's
single most popular publication. The Department will also expand its
efforts using multiple delivery components for streaming and digital
videoconferencing (DVC) to accompany electronic and print publications.
To gather public feedback, the Department will continue to use the web
survey developed for the general public and student sites.

The Office of the UnderSecretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs
will move closer to meeting its legislative mandate to publish a
national foreign policy record of each administration through the
publication of the *Foreign Relations of the United States* (FRUS)
series. Completion of additional *FRUS* series will ensure that the
Department meets the objectives of the Advisory Committee on Historical
Diplomatic Documentation, created by law to provide independent guidance
and oversight of the FRUS series. By FY 2004, if appropriate resources
are provided, the series will be publishing within thirty-five years of
the events documented.

The degree of overall success will be assessed by the level of
understanding of U.S. foreign policy by the American public as measured
by research conducted on an ongoing basis through focus groups and
national audience polling. This research will aid in developing
communication tools and techniques to target specific messages that
articulate U.S. foreign policy.

### Public Benefit

[Human Resources]{.underline}: The approximately 26,500 Foreign Service,
Civil Service, and Foreign Service National employees posted throughout
the world in over 300 different locations are the Department's most
significant resource. To maintain the U.S. role as a world leader in the
twenty-first century, the people of the Department - America's foreign
policy representatives - must be the best the nation has to offer. The
Department must have sufficient resources to attract, train, promote,
and retain the very best employees. The Department's goal is to employ
the right people, with the right skills, in the right place, at the
right time.

[Information Technology]{.underline}: The Department's ability to
fulfill its mission effectively depends heavily on the collection,
analysis, communication, and presentation of information in forms useful
to its stakeholders - the public, businesses, other USG agencies,
foreign governments, and its employees. In turn, these capabilities
depend heavily on the presence of a secure, modern, information
technology infrastructure.

The Department is making a concerted effort to use commercial best
practices to deploy secure modern office automation platforms, secure
global networks (unclassified, classified, and the Internet), a
centrally managed IT infrastructure, a modern
messaging/archiving/knowledge management system, streamlined
administrative systems, and a customer-focused portal.

In addition, the Department continues to implement a comprehensive risk
management program for IT systems, using state-of-the-art tools. Further
improvements in the ability of users to access information and services,
and virtual collaboration in such areas as foreign policy initiatives,
passport and visa services, crisis management, grants management,
acquisition data and internal administrative functions, will become a
reality by the end of FY 2004.

[Diplomatic Security]{.underline}: The Bureau of Diplomatic Security
(DS) provides protection that ensures the safety of personnel and
information in order to maintain the Department's ability to conduct
diplomacy.

[Facilities]{.underline}: The Department's worldwide network of
facilities is a major element of the nation's diplomatic readiness from
which USG employees are able to advance U.S. interests. By providing
secure, safe, and functional overseas facilities, USG employees are able
to pursue the vital interests of the American public more effectively.

The consolidation and renovation of the Department's office space in
Foggy Bottom will both serve the conduct of diplomacy in Washington and
provide a more secure, safe, and efficient workspace for employees. The
completion of a modern office building for the U.S. Mission to the
United Nations at 799 UN Plaza in New York will not only serve employees
better, but will also provide a more suitable face to the world for the
U.S. delegation.

[Budget]{.underline}: Better budget formulation and execution, grounded
in better performance planning and the tracking of results against
targets, will permit more efficient and accountable use of funding. It
will also facilitate achievement of the Department\'s mission and
program goals for the benefit of the American people.

[Financial Management]{.underline}: Integrated budgeting, planning and
performance measurement processes, together with effective financial
management and demonstrated financial accountability, will improve the
management and performance of the Department. It will ensure that the
resources entrusted to the Department are well managed and judiciously
used. The American people will be able to see how well programs perform,
and the costs they incur for that performance. This improved
accountability for performance, together with unquestionable fiscal
integrity, will deliver meaningful results to the American people.

[Administrative and Information Services]{.underline}: The 80 percent
reduction in the backlog of Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests
by FY 2005 will make a significant contribution to advancing the
knowledge of the public about foreign policy operations. This is
especially important as the United States pursues the war on terrorism
and enforcement of international regimes to control weapons of mass
destruction.

A new modern information system providing allowance and differential
rates for U.S. civilian personnel serving abroad will enable the Office
of Allowances to be more effective and efficient in carrying out its
critical mission. This office's vision for the future is to implement a
simpler, faster, more accurate and reliable information system that uses
state-of-the-art technology, including web-based resources that allow
overseas posts to submit allowances data electronically.

Accreditation of individual overseas schools by U.S. accrediting
agencies ensures that the overseas schools are comparable to those of
public schools in the United States. Accreditation by U.S. accrediting
agencies helps to guarantee the availability of an appropriate, high
quality American-style education for USG dependents overseas, and
facilitates their transfer between overseas and U.S. schools. Most of
the overseas assisted by the Department have been accredited by U.S.
accrediting agencies. The Department is working to obtain accreditation
of those few schools that have not yet been accredited.

The Department's Office of Logistics Management provides sustainable
support to diplomatic activities by ensuring on-time delivery of
products and services to U.S. embassies and consulates around the world.
E-logistics processes and other improvements will enhance services by
eliminating redundancies, increasing efficiencies, decreasing cycle
time, and providing global visibility about the status of transactions
in the chain of supply and by using secure, near real-time query tools.
These tools will display key information from ordering to receipt about
item type, shipment dates, and shipment history.

Electronic commerce offers American businesses expanded opportunities to
compete for Department contracts. Performance-based service contracting
will result in more efficient and effective use of program dollars to
promote cost-effective results.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance 

![](media/image16.wmf){width="2.8437007874015747in"
height="1.911023622047244in"}Through the Diplomatic Readiness
Initiative, the Department has begun to address the severe imbalance
that formed in the 1990s between an expanding workload and a diminishing
labor force. By the end of FY 2004, the Department will have fulfilled
the initial plan to restore diplomatic readiness through additional
hiring. Additional hiring efforts will also continue to include
significant outreach activities designed to attract minorities to the
Foreign Service. The adjacent chart shows that in FY 2002, 34 percent of
the people who sat for the Foreign Service exam were minorities. The
Department hopes to maintain or increase this percentage in FY 2003 and
FY 2004.

In 2004, the Department will implement comprehensive workforce planning
tools. With the completion of the Domestic Staffing Model and a Civil
Service Succession Planning Model the Department will be able to ensure
that workforce is aligned with mission. The efforts begun in 2003 to
reform the Civil Service hiring process should be paying off in 2004,
resulting in shorter hiring times and fewer staffing gaps. In 2004, the
Department will expand use of a locally engaged staff appointment
authority that will streamline the hiring process and expand use of a
computer-aided job evaluation program. Finally, the Department will
continue to take appropriate steps, in cooperation with other relevant
USG agencies, to ensure that U.S. citizens are satisfactorily
represented in multilateral organizations.

To retain staff in a competitive labor market, the Department is
committed to ensuring that its rising generation of leaders has a
thorough and professional education from entry through the middle ranks
and continuing on to the senior levels. The center for these
developmental programs is The Foreign Service Institute (FSI), which
supports the Department's strategic goals and initiatives through
training programs that reflect policy priorities such as
counterterrorism, economics and trade, science policy, global issues,
and human rights. FSI helps ensure diplomatic readiness through training
in leadership and management, foreign languages, area studies,
professional tradecraft, and technical subjects such as IT. FSI also
helps family members prepare for the demands of a mobile lifestyle and
life abroad. In order to provide such training, however, the Department
requires a sufficiently large complement of personnel so that it can
release some employees for training and ensure that day-to-day
responsibilities are met.

The Department will soon have a sufficient complement of personnel to
mitigate staffing gaps and allow employees the time to take needed
training. To ensure the capacity to meet potential demand, FSI, given an
adequate resource base, will increase the amount of course sessions it
offers in professional tradecraft, foreign languages, and technical
skills; continue the second year of implementing mandatory leadership
training; and increase efforts to capitalize on Distance Learning as a
means to reach the Department's worldwide target audience quickly and
more economically. To meet other Department priorities, FSI will further
its efforts to strengthen consular training in interviewing techniques
and border security, and bolster public diplomacy training that helps
U.S. diplomats communicate America's message. FSI will incorporate these
subject into all of its language courses.

During FY 2004, the Department will work toward expanding programs that
address spousal employment, dependent care, health and crisis response,
working conditions, and support of families overseas. These are only a
few of the numerous programs aimed at providing the men and women of the
Department with a work environment competitive with the best of the
private sector. Charged by the President and Congress with a major new
hiring campaign, the Department can now provide its personnel with the
kind of work environment crucial to a well-functioning organization.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

By June 2003, the Department will have successfully completed the
deployment phase of the OpenNet Plus project on schedule and on budget;
over 43,000 USG employees worldwide will have desktop access to the
Internet. This capability will greatly enhance communication,
collaboration, and information sharing with all Department e-Government
customers and stakeholders. By FY 2004, the project will have moved into
its routine maintenance phase.

By the end of FY 2003, the Classified Connectivity Program (CCP) will be
completed. It will provide Department employees worldwide who are
authorized access to classified material with a single, modern, and
secure classified network and e-mail system; greater access to web-based
information via a classified Intranet; and improved communication and
collaboration with other national security agencies via connection to
the Secret Internet Protocol Router Network (SIPRNET). By the second
quarter of FY 2003, the Department will have installed CCP at 126 posts
and it expects installation at all 221 eligible posts by the second
quarter of FY 2004. The project will then move into its routine
maintenance phase.

The Enterprise Network Management (ENM) program provides the services
and infrastructure to manage the Department global network and systems
assets. In FY 2004, ENM plans to continue to focus on improved network
and systems availability through Virtual Private Networks (VPNs),
consolidation of unclassified and classified network operations and
management systems, Windows 2000 transition, Remote Systems Management,
Application Management, Universal Trouble Ticket, and IT Asset
Management. By the end of FY 2004, the Department projects that network
reliability will improve to the 99-percent level and that over 75
percent of overseas posts will have had VPNs installed.

SMART (State Messaging and Archive Retrieval Toolset) is a simple,
secure, sophisticated system that meets three critical business needs of
diplomacy - - modern messaging, dynamic archiving, and desktop
information sharing. It will be able to search and manage the
information contained in the more than 72 million messages sent each
year through diplomatic channels. Personnel of all other USG agencies
(located at 260 overseas posts in 150 countries, their Washington
headquarters, and at other domestic sites) will be able to access
Department e-Documents via SMART messaging capability. The Department
will refine requirements, design, and technology concepts that lead to
the release of a design competition Request for Proposal (RFP) during FY
2003, begin SMART deployment in FY 2004 and finish in FY 2005.

To ensure the integrity, confidentiality and availability of information
and information systems, the Chief Information Officer (CIO) is
implementing a comprehensive cyber security program. As part of the
program, systems undergo system authorization which is a risk management
process. Based on a risk management approach, the CIO plans to complete
these assessments on all existing and emerging systems by September
2004. To accomplish this objective, all systems will undergo
Certification and Accreditation (C&A) over an eighteen-month period
rather ending in FY 2004. After FY 2004, a three-year recurring C&A
cycle will be adopted.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Implement OpenNetPlus (Internet) project to provide desktop Internet
access for 43,000 plus Department users.**

-   OpenNetPlus Program Management Office (PMO) established to manage
    projects through study, acquisition, integration, deployment, and
    integration phases. Funding obtained via the Department IT capital
    planning process.

-   OpenNetPlus Connection Approval Process (CAP) and Independent
    Verification and Validation process (IV&V) created to ensure
    existing security requirements met before Interim Authority to
    Operate (IATO) on the Internet granted to bureaus and posts.

**ENM installs 200 VPNs, thus providing over 75 percent of this
capability to all posts.**

-   ENM office established an integrated project team and obtained
    requisite funding via the Department's IT capital planning process
    to set the policies, procedures, service agreements, and target
    technical solutions to complete this effort.

-   Project management uses Business Engine Software Corp's known as
    "MPM" to manage contract and project performance and report status
    to senior management.

**Improve network availability to 99 percent.**

-   ENM office established an integrated project team and obtained
    requisite funding via the Department's IT capital planning process
    to set the policies, procedures, service agreements, and target
    technical solutions to complete this effort.

-   Project management uses Business Engine Software Corporation's
    planning tool to manage contract and project performance and report
    status to senior management.

**Completed the classified program, thus providing classified
connectivity to all domestic and overseas locations authorized to handle
classified material. Continue classified and unclassified refresh and
maintenance program.**

-   A program management office (PMO) was established to develop and
    implement the Classified Connectivity Program (CCP).

-   With the completion of the Classified Connectivity Program (CCP) at
    all 221 posts in the first quarter of FY 2004, a consolidated
    program office will be put in place to refresh, maintain, and
    enhance the Department's classified and unclassified infrastructure
    on a continuing basis.

**Complete the SMART Pilot and begin deployment of a simple, secure,
state-of-the-art system to meet three critical business needs: modern
messaging, dynamic archiving, and desktop information sharing.**

-   The SMART steering committee, chaired by a career ambassador and
    reporting to the Under Secretary for Management, provides project
    oversight. Its primary responsibility is to ensure the inclusion of
    Department-wide perspective and participation in the project. It is
    also responsible for ensuring coordination with all agencies with an
    overseas presence that will be potential users of SMART. The
    steering committee is supported by four working groups, including an
    interagency working group, responsible for addressing critical
    issues in the conceptual development of the project.

-   Establish a PMO to manage the project.

**Certification and accreditation of major applications and general
support systems.**

-   Establish a PMO with experienced in-house staff and contractor
    support.

-   Certify and accredit the IT environment consistent with the National
    Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidance document and
    the types of accreditations.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

![](media/image17.wmf){width="2.8854330708661418in"
height="1.9125984251968504in"}The adjacent chart shows that during FY
2004, the Department will complete technical security upgrades for the
remaining twenty-nine posts scheduled. The Chemical Biological
Countermeasures Program will complete distribution of escape masks to
all USG employees overseas. This will complete the last of the projects
begun under the Emergency Security Amendment (ESA). A capital
replacement program is in place to ensure that armored vehicles deployed
abroad under the ESA remain operational. The intrusion detection system
for ClassNet will be near completion and the final posts will be in the
process of being outfitted. Also, during FY 2004, a new access control
system has been designed and implementation is planned for half of the
Department annexes in the National Capital Region. The new access
control system is needed to replace the current outdated system and to
upgrade the Department to SMART card technology. Finally, periodic
reinvestigations will be conducted at a five year rate in accordance
with E.O. 12968.

The Department signed a MOU with the Federal Emergency Management Agency
(FEMA) to establish a highly survivable redundant capability for the
Department's Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP) Information
Technology infrastructure at FEMA's Federal Support Center in Olney,
Maryland. This facility will serve as a "live mirror site" for the
Beltsville Information Management Center (BIMC) and is designed to
handle any disruption to the Department's communications infrastructure
and ensure communications with our overseas posts. Previous estimates
for establishing an alternate communication site for BIMC exceeded \$500
million; this effort will cost approximately \$7 million.

### Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Department expects to meet the Secretary's challenge to complete new
construction projects on time, within budget, and in the most efficient
ways possible, while ensuring that facilities be well-built, secure, and
modern facilities. The Department now uses a "design-build" delivery
method that reduces the time and cost of new construction, while using
"standard embassy designs" to provide shorter design/construction
periods and to control costs through standardization.

Currently, the Department has twenty-two capital projects under
construction and forty-two major rehabilitation projects underway
overseas. Of the twenty-two projects, nine are to be completed by the
end of FY 2004. In FY 2004, the Department plans to acquire ten new
sites for New Embassy Construction (NEC) construction projects, award
contracts for eleven capital construction projects, and start
construction on five major rehabilitation projects. Other work planned
for FY 2004 includes replacement of fire protection systems in 329,000
square feet of principal office buildings overseas, refurbishment of 6
percent of principal officer residences, and hiring full-time facility
managers for 90 percent of "critical" overseas posts. These facility
managers are highly trained specialists responsible for establishing and
managing maintenance and repair programs.

Phase 1A of the Foggy Bottom renovation is on schedule. DS will move to
a new headquarters building in northern Virginia beginning in mid-2003.
The architectural design for a new building for the U.S. Mission to the
United Nations (USUN) at 799 UN Plaza in New York has been completed.
Additionally, numerous capital improvements have been made in
Department-owned facilities

Domestically, the Foggy Bottom consolidation of office space will
continue on schedule. The phased installation first of
fragment-resistant film, and then of blast-resistant windows beginning
in 2004, is now integrated into the multiyear renovation at the Harry S
Truman building and other designated facilities. Arrangements are under
way with GSA to lease a planned addition to the American Pharmaceutical
Association building adjacent to the Truman building, for occupancy by
2006. Planning is also underway to develop new office space at the
George P. Shultz National Foreign Affairs Training Center to accommodate
additional employees and to provide a permanent daycare facility.
Several sites have been identified to serve as a possible interim office
building (IOB) space for USUN. Funding in FY 2003 will enable the IOB
lease award and preparation for occupancy in early 2004. Demolition of
the existing office building (EOB) will begin as soon as complete
construction funding is available for the joint GSA/State new office
building (NOB) project.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Acquire ten new sites for NEC capital projects in FY 2004.**

-   Include NEC site candidates in the six-year Long-Range Overseas
    Buildings Plan (LROBP), to ensure that target sites are identified,
    planned, and funded appropriately.

-   Use global real estate firms, internal assets, and post assets to
    identify suitable NEC sites.

-   Ensure responsibility and accountability in the acquisition of NEC
    sites.

-   Actively employ performance measures and program reviews.

**Award eleven capital projects IAW LROBP in FY 2004.**

-   Work extensively with stakeholders and partners (e.g., regional
    bureaus, Bureau of Diplomatic Security, overseas posts, and other
    USG agencies) to identify capital projects to be included in the
    LROBP.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Seek funding in accordance with the LROBP, award contracts
    expeditiously while taking advantage of flexibility in procurement.
    Use other initiatives such as design-build contracts and employment
    of standard embassy designs.

-   Actively employ performance measures and program reviews to ensure
    targets are met.

-   Place awarded capital projects on the "fast track."

**Complete Phase 1A of Old State construction; start construction of
U.S. Diplomacy Center; do planning for New State Phase 1B
construction.**

-   The HST building renovation, the highest priority project of the GSA
    National Capital Region, is the centerpiece of efforts to
    consolidate essential Department staff in Foggy Bottom. The
    Department is contributing a significant portion of the funding for
    this project, in partnership with GSA. The U.S. Diplomacy Center was
    approved for construction in the "Old State" section of the
    building. Now in the design stage, construction will begin in FY
    2004.

**Relocate staff and begin construction at USUN.**

-   The Department and GSA are prepared to relocate USUN staff and begin
    construction on a new secure, safe, and functional USUN office
    building, provided funding is made available in FY 2003 for the IOB
    build-out and USUN move to the IOB. The move is anticipated by early
    January 2004. GSA has funds to cover the demolition of the EOB and
    anticipates receiving construction funds for the NOB in FY 2003. The
    Department needs FY 2004 funds for its share of the NOB
    construction. GSA could bid the NOB project anytime between October
    2003 and April 2004 in order to coordinate award of the NOB
    construction when the EOB demolition is completed in June 2004.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

The Department will achieve a "green" status rating for the President's
Management Agenda (PMA) initiatives of Budget and Performance
Integration and Improved Financial Performance.[^4] The Department will
accomplish this by improving its annual performance and strategic
planning process, receiving unqualified ("clean") opinions on timely
financial statements, modernizing corporate financial management
systems, consolidating most financial operations in Charleston, South
Carolina, and ensuring that effective management controls are in place
and functioning.

The Department will continue to focus on improving its annual
performance and strategic planning process, and its coordination between
policy and resources. At the mission level, the process will be
automated to allow overseas posts to develop their performance plans
on-line and in collaboration with each other. In addition, the
Department is working to develop bureau-specific performance plans to
determine resource allocation. Through the deployment of the Central
Financial Planning System (CFPS), the Department will link its different
databases and accounting systems with program performance results. Using
the Department's Central Resource Management System (CRMS) as its
foundation, CFPS will be a comprehensive planning and budget system that
will link and consolidate budgeting, financial planning, costing, and
performance management activities. CRMS will integrate into one database
all data collection, budget formulation, financial planning,
apportionment, allotment control, foreign currency transactions, and
reimbursement management, as well as budget and financial plan
preparation, publication, and promulgation.

Improving financial management consists of several critical efforts. RM
will ensure that there is continued excellence in the quality and
timeliness of the Department's Financial Statements and Performance and
Accountability Reports, and meet the increasingly short deadlines for
issuing these reports as required by OMB. The implementation of a new
Global Financial Management System (GFMS) will establish a single,
worldwide integrated financial management system that allows
standardization of Department business processes. Leveraging the
benefits of a standardized, modern, worldwide financial management
system, RM will continue to streamline and consolidate Department
worldwide financial operations into the Charleston Financial Services
Complex. Having resolved all outstanding material weaknesses, RM will
continue to aggressively administer the Department's management controls
program.

The Department will continue to transform itself into an e-Government
organization. By adopting new technologies to improve and reengineer the
Department's business processes, the Department will successfully
leverage best business practices and electronic technologies. An
estimated 85 percent of U.S. embassies now operating in a batch
environment will be connected in FY 2004 to the Global Direct Connect
(GDC) network that will provide real-time, on-line connection with GFMS.
The Department will also complete implementation of Web-based procedures
to collect worldwide Time and Attendance data (thereby eliminating
hard-copy Earnings and Leave Statements), a web-based Travel Manager
system integrated with GFMS, and an electronic Business-to-Government
commercial invoice system. Use of the Reuters foreign currency
purchasing system in consolidated foreign currency purchasing operations
will begin. Finally, during FY 2004, the Department will expand the use
of purchase charge cards.

The FY 2004 deployment of CFPS will allow the Department to plan,
budget, and manage resources better and to track performance against
strategic goals and objectives. It will integrate planning, budgeting,
execution and performance information in a central data repository for
use by decision-makers at all levels of the Department and other USG
agencies. CFPS will accomplish this by providing a central planning and
budgeting system for use by bureaus and missions. CFPS will also provide
visibility of headquarter-, bureau-, and mission-level program decisions
through all phases of the financial management process, and ensure
consistency in essential performance planning, budgeting, and
information tracking.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Improved Financial Performance Rating. Status: Green. Progress:
Green.**

-   Green status rating will be achieved through continued excellence in
    the quality and timeliness of the Department's Financial Statements
    and Performance and Accountability Reports, implementation of a new
    GFMS, streamlining and consolidating the Department's worldwide
    financial operations into FSC Charleston, and aggressively
    administering the Department management controls program.

**Budget and Performance Integration Rating. Status: Green. Progress:
Green.**

-   Use CFPS to:

-   clarify how proposed program activities align with the Department\'s
    priority goals,

-   clarify what those activities can achieve and what they will cost,
    and

-   ensure budget amounts, financial plans, and execution will maximize
    the beneficial impact of Department program goals.

**Complete the development and deployment of CFPS Bureau and Field
Budget Plan and Financial Performance and Reporting Modules.**

-   Develop/deploy an automated system that will be used by missions and
    bureaus to develop, submit for approval, and monitor resource
    decisions and financial performance against requests and approved
    spending plans.

-   Utilize regular meetings of the Configuration and Integration
    Council (CIC) to manage risk and keep the development of project
    modules on schedule.

**Submit the FY 2003 Combined Performance and Accountability Report
(PAR) on time.**

-   Assign more staff to this area.

-   Develop new processes to receive information included by end of
    fiscal year, and improve development and publication of information.

**The FY 2003 PAR receives the Certificate of Excellence in
Accountability Reporting (CEAR) Award.**

-   Continue participation in the Association of Government Accountants
    (AGA) CEAR program, incorporating improvements to the Report based
    on comments received from the annual CEAR Review.

-   Incorporate into the Report those best practices identified from
    reports from other entities and industry leaders.

**Occupy the third building in the Charleston complex.**

-   Detailed planning, oversight of construction of building (including
    incentive clauses), human resource rightsizing and hiring plan, and
    continued funding.

### Summary: Projected FY 2004 Performance

Recent initiatives have emphasized business process improvement and
customer-centered efforts in the areas of logistics, procurement,
grants, official records, facilities, and other programs. The Center for
Administrative Innovation is inspiring new action to meet the needs of
Department customers worldwide, and has worked with administrative
professionals at posts to offer the "Admin Toolkit" and other
information-sharing via the Intranet. Another initiative, "WebMove,"
allows Foreign Service personnel assigned overseas to manage their moves
on-line. A multi-year project is underway to eliminate the backlog of
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests, and to provide more
information from historical foreign policy records to the public via the
Internet. Likewise, vendors used by the Department benefit from an
expanded catalog of businesses available through the Statebuy
Interactive Program, [www.statebuy.gov](http://www.statebuy.gov/).

OMB has approved the Department's competitive sourcing plan, which also
includes a quality sourcing initiative begun this year to provide a new
approach to acquisitions. This permits the Department seeks
performance-based contracting rather than traditional labor-hours
contracting.

The Department will continue efforts to provide and measure the
effectiveness of additional innovative administrative programs. The
planned Jefferson Information Center will transform the Ralph J. Bunch
Library into a twenty-first century center for information and research
on diplomacy and foreign affairs. The Department will develop and
implement a web-enabled allowances system for reporting between posts
and Washington and will begin initial deployment of the Integrated
Logistics Management System.\
E-Commerce opportunities for vendors, including small and disadvantaged
businesses, will expand. The Department proposes establishing a
rapid-response logistics capability both in Washington and Europe, as
well as a consolidated warehouse and pouch facility in the Washington
metropolitan area. The Department will also address numerous
requirements for proper management of official records to reduce
life-cycle costs and to fulfill legal obligations.

### Means and Strategies by Target

**Use Quality Sourcing specifications in 20 percent of service
contracts.**

-   Review advance acquisition plans, analyze OMB Form 300 submittals
    for IT capital projects, and coordinate with program offices to
    provide a means to identify contracts that could become
    performance-based.

-   Under the Quality Sourcing initiative, blanket purchase agreements
    for technical support under the GSA MOBIS schedule were awarded in
    FY 2003. Pursue additional outreach to program offices and
    dissemination of instructional material.

-   E-Commerce return on investment will maintain the functionality of
    the Statebuy Interactive Platform. Web site enhancements will
    continue as well as promotion of its availability, including both
    pre-award and post-award functions.

**Fill 75 percent of orders perfectly.**

-   Achieve Optimal Customer Relationships by collaborating across
    organizations to streamline and integrate business processes to
    reduce cycle time.

-   Provide Informed On-line Support by continuing to enhance the value
    of electronic communications, improving the quality and timeliness
    of interactive on-line communications such as e-mail exchanges and
    text messaging, and presenting non-interactive information and
    support using clear intuitive web page postings.

-   Implement a Flexible Product Configuration and Order Fulfillment by
    improving product selection and making changes to align product
    selection with customer requirements more effectively.

-   Integrate Operations Infrastructures by implementing integrated cost
    accounting and financial systems.

**Have a total of 155 accredited schools.**

-   Provide grants and technical assistance to overseas schools that
    educate USG dependent children.

-   Encourage accreditation, Advanced Placement (AP) examinations,
    programs for children with special needs, fundraising, and
    in-service training.

-   Enhance assistance to Department families about overseas schooling
    during bidding and assignment process.

-   Encourage the use of technology in overseas schools.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Provide support for the work of Regional Educational Associations.

**Reduce the FOIA Backlog by 40 percent.**

-   The funding and FTE allotted for this effort will allow for a 40
    percent reduction in the FOIA backlog by the end of the third
    quarter of FY 2003. The continued resource commitment to the project
    will reduce the backlog an additional 40 percent by the beginning of
    the fourth quarter of FY 2004.

**Development/Initial deployment of E-Allowances system.**

-   Phase I of the project to request a new system is underway;
    requirements review and justification are nearing completion. This
    work will lead to a comprehensive OMB Exhibit 300 presentation
    within Department Information Technology Capital Planning
    guidelines.
