The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) has changed the name of its "External Publicity" wing into "Public Diplomacy" wing to keep it better functional in achieving goals.
Through the renamed wing, the MoFA will reach out Bangladeshis at home and abroad to keep them informed about Bangladesh foreign policy and build a positive image at the international level.
The wing will use various ways to exchange opinions with stakeholders and create awareness about government initiatives, said the MoFA on Sunday.
The government's aim is to establish effective democracy in Bangladesh which was established through great Independence, MoFA said adding that it is essential to see reflection of opinions of people from all walks of life in running the State in a democratic framework.
