Three two-day seminars per year, open to students and professionals from all backgrounds. Each seminar is hands-on and scenario based, concluding in a practical exercise or simulation (60 participants per seminar per year).
Seminar 1 - Health Diplomacy in Crisis Zones
What does health diplomacy look like on the ground? This seminar explores real cases of humanitarian programmes and health interventions during natural disasters and armed conflict.
Seminar 2 - Mediating Peace through Health Interventions
Health agreements have played a quiet but critical role in some of history’s most difficult peace processes. This seminar examines those cases and challenges participants to draft their own: a health-based agreement as part of a broader peace framework between opposing parties.
Seminar 3 - Building Trust through Health Partnerships in Disaster Response Settings
Trust is the hardest thing to build in conflict, and health can build it where nothing else can. This seminar looks at collaborative health projects that have reduced hostilities between neighboring communities and conflict-prone states. Participants design a multi-stakeholder health programme that could work in a real-world context.
