ABOUT THE ACADEMY
a word from the president
"The Académie Diplomatique Internationale, which for decades had established itself as a major institution for dialogue, training and advice on diplomatic matters, has been forced to cease its activities.
A group of former ADI managers, including Ms Mbarka Zineddine and several of the former team's trainers, decided to set up the Académie des Métiers de la Diplomatie to continue ADI's training mission.
The aim is to provide a modern, competitive structure for the many professionals seeking solid training in international relations.
Modern diplomacy is no longer limited to strictly inter-state relations. A growing number of non-governmental players now occupy an indisputable place on the international stage. What's more, the Internet has virtually erased the boundaries of information, and ideas circulate in real time. Faced with these new dynamics, governments and companies are faced with unprecedented challenges, and must grasp the stakes and anticipate developments.
It is against this backdrop of profound change in the diplomatic and international landscape that the Académie des Métiers de la Diplomatie (AMD), under the impetus of its President and the former members of the Académie Diplomatique Internationale, is committed to offering the international community, businesses and civil society alike, keys to understanding and concrete answers to their needs, and thereby perpetuating the traditional activities of the ADI.
The AMD program includes training sessions, consultancy services, study groups and conferences on major international issues.
Other activities are currently being developed, and I suggest that you consult this site regularly to follow the progress of our work. We are of course always open to your suggestions, so please don't hesitate to let us know. "
Presentation
The Académie des métiers de la Diplomatie (AMD) is a center of excellence for training, research and consulting in diplomacy and international affairs. Its creation in 2019 is the result of an official agreement by the Académie Diplomatique Internationale (ADI), which, following the cessation of its activities in 2018, granted AMD the right to take over its training program. On behalf of ADI's former managing members, the aim is to ensure the continuity and continued development of its traditional activities.
The AMD's vocation is to promote, under the banner of excellence and independence, a modern diplomacy founded on the principles of law and international cooperation, through the analysis, dissemination, exchange and sharing of knowledge and best practices between professionals from the worlds of politics, diplomacy, economics, academia, civil society and the media.
Drawing on a unique network of expert and intellectual contacts worldwide, the Académie offers current and future players in diplomatic and international life a wide-ranging program of training and professional skills enhancement, adapted to developments and practices in the diplomatic profession, and more broadly, in all professions requiring skills in the international arena. It also offers consulting, research, analysis and specialized study services on strategic and international issues.
AMD counts among its members and close collaborators many of those who have played a decisive role in the development of the International Diplomatic Academy's activities.
