GLOBAL SUMMIT: DIPLOMACY & INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS

11 Days Email page to a Friend
WASHINGTON, DC, Trinity Washington University
 NEW YORK , NY, Columbia University

 

At the Global Summit, you'll explore the very real and complex diplomatic issues facing our world today. You'll meet policy makers and international diplomats with whom you'll discuss the delicate balance of world peace, the ways in which governments negotiate and reach alliances, and the realities behind international conflict resolution.

TWO-CITY PROGRAM
Depending on your session, your conference will begin in Washington, DC or New York City. In Washington, DC you will meet with government officials and learn about the ways in which US foreign policy is shaped. Leaders of global organizations, agencies and governing bodies will guide you in exploring international response in a post-9/11 world. In New York City, home of the United Nations, you'll continue your exploration with an in-depth look at the role of the UN in resolving differences between governments and the economic, diplomatic and military strategies available to solve international conflict.

INTERNATIONAL DIPLOMACY SIMULATION
In our International Diplomacy Simulation, you'll tackle an international crisis or disruption of peace. You'll take on the roles of heads of governments, international organizations and special interest groups and identify and weigh the consequences of possible economic, diplomatic and other efforts. You'll work to maintain the delicate balance of world peace while advancing the policies and interests of the country or organization you represent. From Washington, DC to New York City, you'll experience the power and excitement of international politics and global cooperation.
