''In the Photo's Lower Right Corner''

A Conversation with Ambassador Harry Geisel

By: Harold W. Geisel

Harry Geisel likens his life to that of Selig, Woody Allens character who keeps showing up as an unknown little man in historic scenes. A long-time Foreign Service manager, Geisel had scenes in U.S. diplomatic history that included the Cold War, the South African anti-apartheid struggle, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the birth of the new Russia, and Chinas development as a great power. In this series of very colorful and candid interviews, Ambassador Geisel describes his life in providing backstage support to U.S. foreign policy.

Performance of Pacific Architects and Engineers, Inc. (PAE) Operations and Maintenance Support for the Bureau of International Nar

By: Harold W. Geisel

In March 2004, the Dept. of State (Dept.) awarded a contract to a U.S.-based joint venture partnership between Pacific Architects and Engineers, Inc. (PA&E, now called PAE) and Homeland Security Company LLC, to assist in implementing the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs' (INL) program. An additional task order was added to the contract in Feb. 2007 to provide operations and maintenance support at two compounds used by specialized units within the Afghan counternarcotics police force which conduct sensitive investigations of major narcotics production and distribution networks. From Feb. 2007 through July 2010, INL obligated $60 million to PAE for operations and maintenance support at these two compounds. This evaluation was conducted to determine: (1) the requirements and provisions of the contract and task orders; (2) the amount of funding the Dept. has obligated and expended to provide operations and maintenance; (3) the effectiveness of PAE's contract performance in providing operations and maintenance support to the counternarcotics compounds in Kabul and Kunduz; (4) how well the Dept. administers and manages the contract and task orders to provide oversight of PAE's performance in Afghanistan; (5) how the Dept. ensures that costs are properly allocated and supported; and (6) whether the Dept. contract includes Fed. Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.222-50, which provides administrative remedies if, during the term of the contract, the contractor or subcontractor engages in severe forms of trafficking in persons.

Program Review of Refugee Coordination in Jerusalem

Report of Inspection

By: Harold W. Geisel

The principal functions of the Office of the Refugee Coordinator in Jerusalem are to represent U.S. interests and to monitor the operations of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). UNRWA provides food; manages refugee camps, schools, and health clinics; and renders other social services for 4.7 million Palestinian refugees under its protection. Through the Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), the U.S. is the largest contributor to UNRWA. U.S. contributions have averaged approx. $225 million per year during the past two fiscal years, while UNRWA's total expenditures have averaged $1.1 billion per year. The purpose of this program review was to evaluate the Jerusalem refugee coordinator's role in the oversight of U.S. contributions to UNRWA and other organizations, and to review the guidance and support that the refugee coordinator receives from Consulate General Jerusalem, the Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM), and the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs (NEA).

Review of Support for Department of State Employees Who Are Serving Or Have Served in High Stress, High Threat, Unaccompanied Po

By: Harold W. Geisel

The Foreign Service has seen a significant change in its deployment abroad. Currently over 800 members of the Foreign and Civil Service are assigned to posts that are designated as high stress or high threat and thus unaccompanied (some allow spouses but not children). A large percentage of these assignments are for one year, which, while generally warranted by a difficult and dangerous environment, results in a lack of continuity and experience at these posts. The Dept. of State has tried to address the challenges posed by staffing such positions, including by offering training, logistical and other administrative support, incentives, physical and mental medical care, and support for families. Contents of this sensitive but unclassified report: Background; Mental Health Support; The Responsibilities of Onward Assignment Posts and Bureaus; Leadership and Stress; Expanding Options for Counseling; Is the Dept. of State Sending the Right People to High Stress Posts?; Leaping Administrative Hurdles; Support for Families; Recognition for Service; Recommendations; Appendix: Questionnaire with Comments.

Review of the Use of Social Media by the Department of State

By: Harold W. Geisel

Given the rapid growth of social media worldwide in recent years, especially among young people, embassies are increasingly using social media as an important public diplomacy tool. From the beginning of her time in office, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has voiced support for the use of social media to communicate with people around the world. A May 2010 survey found that over half the U.S. missions had Facebook accounts, and a quarter had Twitter accounts. This sensitive but unclassified report examined the use of social media at 22 U.S. missions. Contents: Key Judgments; Context; Inspection Findings; Social Media Site Review Findings; Other Issues; Recommendations. This is a print on demand report.
