Workshops

Diplo offers a wide range of capacity development in-situ and online workshops covering different topics, from public speaking to diplomatic protocol and dealing with the media. Workshops are exercise-based, and aim to help participants identify and overcome challenges by providing practical tips, tools, and solutions.

For the complete workshops list, visit our Workshops page.

The media training with Diplo Foundation was truly a great experience, both provocative and engaging. The exercise widened my understanding of the media environment and taught me how to use my words and body language to deliver effective messages, maintain composure throughout media interviews, and avoid potentially disastrous consequences of being ill prepared. I recommend this workshop to all diplomats desiring to improve their media skills.

– Mr Filip Pavlović, Foreign Policy Officer Sector, EU Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Serbia
