(Berlin, 13th – 18th December 2010)​
The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy is pleased to announce it is currently accepting applications to the forthcoming Weeklong Seminar for the program “The UK Meets Germany: A Forum for Young Leaders”. Participants will take part in a 5-day program of lectures, seminars and workshops lead by experts from politics, diplomacy, and academia. A range of cultural and social activities will complement the academic components and allow the group to expand their personal networks and experience Berlin’s rich cultural and historical landscape.
What will the program look at?
The forthcoming Weeklong Seminar will look in detail at the British-German relationship and the approach of each country to the European Union.

Speakers will be selected from politics, diplomacy, academia, and the cultural sector, to ensure that a plurality of perspectives is presented. Confirmed speakers for the forthcoming Weeklong Seminar include Dr. h. c. Gebhardt von Moltke (Former German Ambassador to the UK), David Davies MP (Conservative MP for Monmouth*), Rory MacLean (Bestselling travel writer, author of Stalin’s Nose), and Mark Donfried (Founder and Director of the Institute for Cultural Diplomacy).
