The Iraq Media Developments Newsletter , a periodical email managed by Monroe Price and Matthew Burton, has been archiving media and telecommunications news since May 2003. We've archived over 400 articles, interviews and documents pertinent to the reconstruction of Iraq's communication structures.

In June 2003, The Stanhope Centre, working with several other international organizations, published Designs for Democratic Media in Iraq, a comprehensive plan to restore Iraq's media structure.

Graduate students at the London School of Economics are currently researching Iraqi and Afghan media development as part of Stanhope's Media Development Paper Series.

We've also archived official documentation of the Coalition Provisional Authority and the U.S. Departments of State and Defense. The below documents are the core of Iraqi communications and U.S. public diplomacy policies.
