Most international operations have minimal needs related to communications and publicity.  The following summarizes points that are important even for small operations.  Those managing large field operations should refer to Section 9: Communications of the ICAP SOPs, to create their own procedures.

• Follow funding agency requirements for co-branding of products
• Obtain written consent from individuals whose name, health information, or images (photos) may be published at some point by the University
• Never create a project website; instead, work with the University’s Biomedical and Health Information Services to create a country-specific web page on the MSPH website
• Obtain authorization from the Mailman School's Office of Communications before issuing a press release, even if it is only for dissemination among local media
• Notify the Mailman School's Office of Communications when approached by representatives of the U.S. or international media requesting information, interviews, or tours of University-supported facilities
