The program was comprehensive in offering a balance between academic and practical content. It gave me the opportunity to explore critical topics such as International Relations and Political Philosophy, in addition to practicing actual work in the Ministry’s different directorates. The program also focused on developing important soft skills for diplomats, such as public speaking and the ability to work under pressure. Another important outcome of the program is the network created between the participants from different directorates.
