Writing reports and other kinds of documents is one of the immediate follow-up tasks of participation in intergovernmental conferences, meetings, and negotiations. This task is extremely time-consuming even more so for the conference delegate who does not possess appropriate tools or does not apply a comprehensive methodology. A successful report depends firstly on the specific body of knowledge that the writer possesses and secondly on specialized techniques which allow the written transfer of that knowledge to be as smooth and as effective as possible. Good and effective statements, reports, and other written documents leave no opportunity for the reader to miss or misunderstand any facts or arguments.
At the end of the workshop, participants should be able to:
- Discern different forms and styles of diplomatic writing and reporting in multilateral diplomacy;
- Apply criteria of good report writing;
- Utilize open sources for diplomatic reporting including meetings coverage, summary records, process verbal and other sources;
- Analyse internationally agreed instruments and required national follow-up;
- Recognize the different textual elements of decisions and resolutions;
- Recognize and draft different types of diplomatic correspondence.
The course is designed to be interactive and participatory, including various pedagogical tools to enable the participants to function effectively and efficiently in multilateral conferences. The course will be built on four pedagogical pillars: concept learning (lectures and presentations), role-playing (group exercises), experience sharing (roundtable discussions), and exposure to real-world problems and policy choices delegates are confronted with.
This course is primarily open to:
- Members of Permanent Missions accredited to the United Nations Office in Geneva;
- Delegates of Ministries of Foreign Affairs and other government officials;
- Representatives of international, intergovernmental, and non-governmental organizations and Diplomatic academies;
- Professionals from the private sector.
