Members of the public are invited to attend IVECA's Summer Camp grand finale, the Global Virtual Roundtable, on August 6th from 9:00pm-10:30pm New York time.
This Global Roundtable explores the significance of cultural diplomacy in our interconnected world. With a focus on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the Roundtable emphasizes the use of soft power resources, such as arts, heritage, language, and cultural expressions, to foster global understanding and cooperation.
Student teams will demonstrate how their soft power can be branded and contribute to achieving the UN SDGs, fostering a shared sense of understanding, and building bridges between nations. By harnessing the transformative power of cultural exchange, the Roundtable aims to suggest best practices of cultural diplomacy to create a more peaceful, and prosperous world.
Youth representatives to the UN and experts in public diplomacy and UN SDGs will also come together to discuss how cultural diplomacy can address pressing global challenges and promote social cohesion. Student teams will share their perspectives as cultural ambassadors, highlighting the positive impact of using their soft power resources in cultivating national identity and cross-cultural understanding.
Registration will be announced in the coming days!
