Workshop on Conference Diplomacy and Multilateral Negotiations
背景信息
Governments and increasingly other actors such as international and non-governmental organizations use multilateral conferences as a means to achieve important policy objectives. As the number of conferences and meetings has risen considerably over the past twenty years, the number of government officers and other stakeholders involved in conference processes has also increased significantly. While diplomats remain at the center of diplomacy, government officials assigned to line ministries and agencies, as well as staff of intergovernmental organizations and NGOs, are increasingly finding themselves in the role of the multilateral conference delegate.
学习目标
At the end of the training, participants will be able to:
- Display a condensed but sound knowledge of the historical background and conceptual framework of Multilateralism and Conference Diplomacy;
- Identify the different types of Conference Diplomacy and understand their rationale;
- Differentiate the resolutions issued by different organs of the United Nations;
- Draft a United Nations resolution adhering to the specific structure of resolutions and their numbering;
- Appreciate the importance of consultation in the process leading from negotiating to adopting United Nations resolutions and explain Negotiation Dynamics;
- Use the rules of multilateral conferences or meetings in a more efficient way to negotiate and adopt United Nations resolutions.
方法
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.
