Digital technologies and Artificial Intelligence (AI) interact with diplomacy along three axes: agency, process and subject matter. This workshop will explore how digital technologies and AI impact and change the agents of diplomacy, including facilitating the participation of new actors in international debates. It will explain how diplomats and other professionals are increasingly using digital technologies and AI in securing their objectives in the international environment, and the challenges and dangers this can bring. Finally the workshop will explore the international problems that digital technologies and AI are generating, including in the context of cybersecurity and disinformation operations, and the ways in which diplomats and other professionals can use diplomacy to manage these agendas. In this context the workshop will also look at the context created by the geopolitics of digital technologies and AI. The workshop will include practical exercises which will enable the participants to practice the skills and knowledge they have acquired.
At the end of the workshop participants will be able to:
- Distinguish key issues at the intersection between diplomacy and technology;
- Explain the relation of cyberspace and geopolitics and its effects on diplomacy;
- Identify concrete ways in which digital technologies, including AI, can support diplomats and diplomacy;
- Identify the main stakeholders and issues of cyberdiplomacy;
- Understanding the opportunities and limitations of using AI in diplomacy.
The course is designed to be interactive and participatory, including various pedagogical tools to enable the participants to function effectively and efficiently in a multilateral environment. 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.
