Abstract
Description
Diplo has a track record of more than 20 years of capacity development in diplomacy. Given the
increasing relevance of science diplomacy, expanding our program to include aspects of its theory
and practice felt like an organic development. We offered our ten-week Science Diplomacy course for
the first time in October 2021.
Our Science Diplomacy course builds on a number of conversations in our Diplo WebDebate format
(DiploFoundation, 2022a, 2022b) and research conducted in conversation with practitioners at CERN
(The European Organization for Nuclear Research), which led to reflections on suitable institutional
frameworks and effective capacity development for Science Diplomacy (Höne and Kurbalija, 2018).
At its core, our 2021 course is a collaborative effort.
