The mission of the Office of International and Interagency Relations (OIIR) is to provide executive leadership and coordination for all NASA international activities and partnerships and for policy interactions between NASA and other U.S. Executive Branch offices and agencies. OIIR serves as the principal Agency liaison with the National Security Council, the Office of Science and Technology Policy, the Department of State, and the Department of Defense. OIIR also directs NASA’s international relations; negotiates cooperative and reimbursable agreements with foreign space partners; provides management oversight and staff support of NASA’s advisory committees, commissions and panels; and manages the NASA Export Control Program and foreign travel by NASA employees.

	WELCOME


	OIIR is organized into six divisions. A matrix approach within the office allows for provision of support to each NASA Mission Directorate and for specific country or regional issues of interest to the Agency. The OIIR organization chart and a brief description of each organizational element follow. In addition to its personnel at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC, OIIR has representatives in Europe, Japan, and Russia. OIIR also maintains liaison positions with the Department of Defense (DoD) in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
