Global Releases New Information Booklet

The U.S. Department of Justice’s Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative (Global) has released a booklet highlighting key efforts supported by Global, including the vigilant preservation of privacy and civil liberties; fusion center partnerships; securing exchanged data and networks; and harnessing the power of the latest innovations so that new technology and standardized languages knock down barriers to information sharing.  The Global Advisory Committee (GAC)—the preeminent voice of local, state, and tribal governments to the U.S. Attorney General (and other leaders) on information sharing matters—is uniquely poised to support many of the new Administration’s priorities with work already accomplished or currently under way.  The GAC gathers twice a year; the next meeting will be held on April 23, 2009.  For more information on Global, please visit www.it.ojp.gov/global.
