Overview
As we believe that the traditional academic components of a degree in these fields must adapt to the rapidly changing world, our approach to future and contemporary global affairs and international economics, for example, focuses on issues such as cultural diplomacy, interdependence, soft power, responsible investments, fair trade, human rights, sustainability and the environment, which play increasingly important roles in the contemporary interdependence global framework.
The Center for Cultural Diplomacy Studies offers therefore innovative MA & PhD programs that provide a new approach to international relations, global economics, intercultural relations, globalization, global governance, art and culture. The International Economics, Business and Cultural Diplomacy programme from ICD Academy for Cultural Diplomacy is pioneering, and unique in their content and approach and oer valuable professional development programs. The MA & PhD programs provide a platform from which students can gain hands-on experience and highlevel knowledge and relationships; equipping students with the tools to launch their career even before the completion of their studies.
