You are being invited to our upcoming Summit on Digital Diplomacy and Governance, which will be held on 18-19 November 2022 at the Radisson Golden Sands in Mellieha. The invitation is being extended to our faculty and students, particularly those involved in diplomatic studies, international relations, politics, and the humanities.
The Summit is being organised by DiploFoundation, in cooperation with Malta’s Ministry for Foreign and European Affairs and Trade, and the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs. In this two-day event, which will be opened by Foreign Minister Ian Borg, we will look ahead at the future of diplomacy by reflecting on the past decades, marked by the use of technology in and for diplomacy.
Diplomats, academics, technologists, and NGO representatives will also discuss digital diplomacy and governance, AI, e-commerce, cybersecurity, and other issues that shape our digital future, as well as policy processes, including ongoing negotiations on the proposed Global Digital Compact.
The Summit will also mark 20 years of DiploFoundation and 30 years of internet and diplomacy research and training in Malta.
The latest programme can be found on the Summit's website. Registration is required (faculty and students are kindly asked to indicate ‘University of Malta' in the registration form).
