(Berlin, March 4^th – 10^th, 2013)

 

                                                          

Weeklong Seminar Agenda

 

Cultural Diplomacy in the Global Economy: A Forum for Young Leaders (CDEC) is an international network of young professionals with an interest in the global economy and its relationship to the public sector, international politics, civil society and the environment. The program has been developed in recognition of the importance of combining perspectives from different fields and levels of society in discussing the challenges to the global economy, and on the understanding that "economic bridges" play an important role in promoting global peace and stability.

 

Members join the Forum by taking part in one of the CDEC Weeklong Seminars that are held every 4-6 months. Each CDEC Weeklong Seminar will be focused on a specific theme related to the Global Economy and the goals of the Forum. These Weeklong Seminars include lectures, seminars, and workshops led by experts from the fields of economics, politics and diplomacy, nation branding and civil society. In addition to introducing the participants to a range of different perspectives on the global economy and its influence on other fields, the week also provides an opportunity to network and experience Berlin.

 

Once they have joined the CDEC Forum, members are supported by the ICD in organizing leadership initiatives, conducting academic research, and are invited to join the ICD Online Forum - enabling them to share information and communicate with likeminded individuals across the world.

 

In addition to looking in greater detail at the history and development of cultural diplomacy, the forthcoming CDEC Weeklong Seminar will focus on the following theme:

 

”Innovative Nation Branding in the 21st Century: Combining Intercultural Relations, Sustainable Development, Ecological Tourism, & Socially Responsible Investment"
