(Brussels; July 1st - 5th, 2013)
In addition to looking in greater detail at the history and development of cultural diplomacy, the next CDE Weeklong Seminar will focus on the following theme:
“Cultural Diplomacy in the European Union: Promoting a European Identity Regionally and Globally”
Conference Location
Based primarily in Belgrade, the conference will be hosted at a number of important political, historic, and cultural locations across the city.
Conference Speakers
Speakers during the conference include leading figures and experts from civil society, international politics, academia, diplomacy, and civil society from around the world. These speakers will include a number of individuals from the ICD Advisory Board.
The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy encourages academic research and analysis of issues related to the goals of our Conference. The ICD would therefore like to welcome the participants of our conference to submit a paper they would like to be considered for presentation at the Conference as well as being included in the proposal document that will be issued following the Conference and will be sent to all governments and leaders of the international community.
Certificate of Attendance
All participants will be awarded a Certificate of Attendance upon completion of the program, which provides details about the speakers and topics of the conference. Each certificate will be signed by members of the ICD's Advisory Board.
Cultural Diplomacy in Europe: A Forum for Young Leaders (CDE) is a network of young individuals from across the world, who have an interest in exploring and strengthening relations between European states. The program is based on the recognition that the increasing political and economic integration of the European Union must be accompanied by sustained activity to ensure that public opinion and relations between individual member states, remain positive and constructive at the grass roots level.
