Information
Workshop for Latvia and Slovenia
held in Brussels
On 12-14 March 2001, in the framework
of the Membership Action Plan, NATO's
Information and Press hosted an information
workshop for Slovene and Latvian government
information specialists. The aim of
the workshop was to help the two aspirant
countries fine tune their NATO information
strategies, as well as explore aspects
of information policy that they wished
to concentrate on in more detail.
After two days of lectures and discussions,
the participants were given the opportunity
to present the lessons learnt during
the workshop to the plenary session,
as well as engage in an interactive
exercise simulating real conditions
in which their information policy
or lines would be challenged by the
public.
The workshop was run by members of
the Office of Information and Press,
with a significant contribution from
public relations experts from the
governments of the Netherlands, United
Kingdom, Poland, Czech Republic and
Hungary.
