Erasmus HWCA Mission of target group need assessment In October 2023, within the Erasmus+ project “Strengthening Higher Education in the Water Sector for Climate Resilience and Security in Central Asia” (HWCA), a Mission was held to assess the needs of target groups at partner universities in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan. The mission was attended by representatives of European universities-partners of the project, as well as representatives of the Diplomatic Academy in Kyrgyzstan, as the main Grant holder of the project, and representatives of Kazakh-German University (DKU). DKU in this project, as an international and Central Asian partner, is the key university for conducting research on water diplomacy. During the needs assessment mission, meetings were held with different target groups (university management, teachers, development partners, students) to clarify the key skills and competencies that water diplomacy specialists should have. Based on the data obtained, reports have been compiled to assess the needs of target groups, and in the future modules on water security will be developed for master’s programs at partner universities in Central Asia. I would like to extend a special thanks to mission participants Jenniver Sehring, Jean-Paul Deroin, Elena Bougleux, Larissa D‘Angelo, Janara Baitgulova and Yuliya Borissova. #watergovernance #waterdiplomacy #dkucrs #dku #erasmusplus #erasmus+

I'm excited to announce that I've been selected to participate in the prestigious Best Diplomats United Nations Simulation Conference in Istanbul, Turkey! This incredible opportunity allows me to hone my diplomatic skills and network with a diverse group of young leaders passionate about global affairs. This year, we'll be tackling the critical issue of "The Ongoing Refugee Crisis in the Middle East" (SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals). Millions of lives have been displaced by conflict, and the international community faces a complex challenge in fostering sustainable solutions. Through simulated debates and discussions, we'll delve into this multifaceted issue, representing different member states and exploring potential solutions. My focus will be on ensuring equitable access to quality education for refugee children. Education is the cornerstone of opportunity and a critical tool for rebuilding shattered lives. Disrupted schooling has a devastating impact on children's development and future prospects. I'm committed to advocating for increased funding and resources for educational programs in refugee camps and host communities. I'm eager to collaborate with future leaders to address humanitarian needs, promote peaceful solutions, and contribute to a more stable and sustainable future for the Middle East and the world. #BestDiplomats #UNSimulation #Istanbul #Diplomacy #FutureLeaders #SDGs #RefugeeCrisis #EducationForAll #GlobalCooperation #EmpoweringChange

The very concise reasons I grow fond of my preferred study, International studies, or sometimes referred to as international studies or relations   I love my course of study and specialisation- strategic Studies. The particular reason for this circumstance is, it allows me to explore diverse cultures, understand global dynamics, and tackle complex global issues.  It broadens my perspective, fosters cross-cultural understanding, and equips me with the skills to make a positive impact in our interconnected multifaceted world. This actively demonstrates that, my field does not only offer knowledge but also can make a significant impact by and large on my country and the world . It teaches and proffers skills to contribute to diplomacy, global development, and particularly to tackle unprecedented events around the world.  This short Note which I myself now call memorandum is part of the answers I gave to the question that I was asked while registering for Best Diplomat Conference slated for September, 2023. But providence denied me of attendence. For Allah and I know the reason.  #diplomacy  #politics  #internationalaffairs  #worldaffairs

Melanesian Spear Head Group (MSG) Summation 2023 Saturday, 22 July 2023 As part of our Basic Diplomacy Training Programme (BDTP) 2023, we conducted a highly impactful practical learning session for our Trainees! Where by the membership of the Association engaged in a captivating mock summation of the Melanesian Spear Head Group (MSG), wherein they assumed the roles of delegates from various MSG countries. Throughout the week, the participants immersed themselves in extensive research which resulted in spirited debates during the day, all with the objective of reaching a resolution. The aim of the mock summation was to give the BDTP 2023 Trainees a first-hand experience as to how a mock Model UN Conference works as they prepare for they final 2 days of Model UN Conference taking place Saturdays 5 and 12 August 2023. As first part of the day the trainees had the opportunity to observe speeches and learn the art of participating in Moderated and Unmoderated Cacuses. They were further enriched by being assigned to the delegates' team, offering them a firsthand experience of the intricacies involved in a mock summation. The hands-on approach garnered overwhelming positive feedback from all the participants! Heartfelt appreciation goes out to the membership of the association for spearheading this initiative and dedicating a week to thorough research, speech writing, and preparation. The thought-provoking topic of the summation, "WEST PAPUA: THE ISSUE THAT WON'T GO AWAY FOR MELANESIA," ignited critical discussions touching on history, development, self-determination and national sovereignty. Initiatives like these are instrumental in nurturing the growth of future diplomats and fostering informed discussions on crucial regional and global matters. Let us persist in nurturing dialogue and understanding among nations to create a more harmonious and united world! This programme is sponsored by the U.S. Embassy.
