June-July 2019
Understanding the fundamental economic dynamics has become today a crucial feature of diplomatic debates, where public and private interests are more and more deeply interconnected.
Economic Diplomacy provides participants with a theoretical and practical knowledge of negotiation techniques in the economic field, combined with a thorough understanding of the complex interconnections between the private and the public sector.
Each participant will have the opportunity to live a direct experience based on the “Learning by doing” approach, which is the leitmotif of all training activities organized by the eastwest European Institute.
