Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will host a “Global Townterview” on Jan. 29 that will be a combination of a town hall meeting and television interview, the U.S. Department of State announced Monday.
Clinton leaves office on Feb. 1. This will be her last of 59 town hall meetings.
Clinton will take questions via Facebook, Twitter and Skype beginning at 9:30 a.m. ET, the department said.
“In partnership with media outlets from every region around the world, the Secretary will take questions from youth in several countries live via satellite,” the department announced. “The State Department has partnered with major media outlets in Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and South America.”
In the United States, the event will be presented live on the State Department website and YouTube.
Clinton is a former First Lady of both the United States and the State of Arkansas. She served in the U.S. Senate from 2001 until she took office as Secretary of State in 2009.
Clinton was an unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008. There is speculation she may seek the office again in 2016.
