Diplomacy in the Arab World: Student Perceptions of
Radio ‘Sawa’ and Television ‘Alhurra’.” Dr. El-Nawawy
will discuss the use and effectiveness of
U.S.-sponsored media as a means of public
diplomacy. Radio “Sawa” and “Alhurra” TV are both
Arabic-language stations funded by the Congress that
attempt to reach the youth of the Arab world. Dr.

survey of college students from five Arab countries
about their perceptions of the credibility of
U.S.-sponsored media.
