The meeting will highlight the Commission's 2020 comprehensive report on public diplomacy and will include a panel of independent experts.

Simple Explanation
The U.S. Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy wants to have a big online meeting to talk about how the U.S. tries to make friends and explain itself to other countries, and anyone can ask to join. But, it's not super clear how to join, who the experts are, or what will happen with the ideas from the meeting.
