The EU’s New Diplomacy

Trade, climate and digitalisation are the strategic fields of global policies where the European Union is displaying strong leadership. Through its Green Deal, the Paris Agreement and the adoption of the Sustainable Develop­ment Goals (SDGs), the EU’s New Diplomacy brings together civil society, NGOs, corporates, think tanks and foundations to reinforce multilateral and rule-based agreements that set it apart from other global powers.

A new generation of policymakers is therefore needed to implement the transnational agreements for a sustainable common future.

Contributing partners

The Master programme receives support by the following contributing partners:■ EU External Action Service in Brussels■ OECD in Paris

Career prospects

Graduates of this programme are expected to successfully start a career in international organisations, lobbying organisations at the national and inter-national level, Public Affairs consultancies, foundations and NGOs, national and international think tanks, as well as multinational corporations.
