On the 3rd of December IRSSA presented a public online lecture via Zoom on the topic "The road to a career in the field of diplomacy" with guest lecturer Mr. Nikolai Gerov.
Mr. Gerov touched upon many interesting topics in his lecture, the most interesting being those that concerned the key factors in finding a job in the field of diplomacy, ethical issues when looking for a job in this field, internships in international organizations, embassies, ministries and other organizations on the diplomatic spectrum.
After the lecture, the participants had the opportunity to ask Mr. Gerov their questions which led to an interesting discussion related to the role and importance of humanitarian organizations for society, as well as the staff supporting the activities of these organizations. The key role of green diplomacy in the modern global world was discussed in detail, as well as the crucial importance of good preparation of diplomats for the process of negotiations.
The online lecture and the ensuing discussion were extremely useful for the young participants in the event, for which IRRSA expresses its deep gratitude to Mr. Nikolay Gerov.
