(Berlin, December 15th - 18th, 2011)
www.culturaldiplomacy-conference.org


Dear Sir/ Madam,

The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy is currently accepting applications for our annual flagship event, which will take place in Berlin, from December 15th - 18th, 2011. The event will bring together governmental and diplomatic officials, civil society practitioners, private sector representatives, journalists, young professionals, students and scholars, and other interested stakeholders from across the world for a program of lectures, workshops, panel and group discussions and social and cultural activities featuring leading figures from the fields of politics, the arts, academia, media, and business.

The “ICD Annual Academic Conference on Cultural Diplomacy 2011” is the concluding conference of the Institute’s Cultural Diplomacy year. Taking place in Berlin, the aim of the conference is to review in detail, debate and evaluate the year in terms of Cultural Diplomacy.

This end of year academic conference will bring together scholars, politicians, diplomats, activists and young professionals to discuss Cultural Diplomacy within International Relations. Ranging from broad topics of discussion to specific areas of Cultural Diplomacy, the annual conference will provide a wide and detailed analysis of Cultural Diplomacy for 2011.

In the post-9/11 world, Cultural Diplomacy and ‘soft power’ tools have taken precedence in many state foreign policies. ‘Soft Power’ is fast becoming the international political currency and the Institute for Cultural Diplomacy is paving the way for greater discussion and action. This conference will focus on and analyze Cultural Diplomacy and it’s relationships with International Relations, Institutions and Global Governance, Civil Society, the Private Sector and Religion.

The conference is open to applications from governmental and diplomatic officials, civil society practitioners, young professionals, students and scholars, private sector representatives, journalists, and other interested stakeholders from across the world.
