Andrea Bartoli, Dean of the Seton Hall University School of Diplomacy and International Relations, recently spoke about the School’s approach to international affairs education during a time of transition in the world.
We live in a world where multiple actors are increasingly playing on both local and international levels – the debates between them intensify every day. Recent activity with China, in Iran, or North Korea are examples of this volatility.
The School of Diplomacy says: “Whatever you want to do in this world-- whether you aspire to be the next U.S. president, work on Wall Street or at a local NGO -- you must understand our international system as a whole, and your place in it. You need to appreciate the consequences of your actions, identify opportunities and build relationships.”
As a school, we are looking at how what we do impacts others. We are a founding member of an international movement that encourages states to have national processes to prevent genocide and crimes against humanity. We have challenged students to put forward ideas for achieving the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. Why do we have this proactive and collective orientation? It’s because the ethos of our School is that by coming together and recognizing the contributions of many, across all levels, we can make the world a better place for everyone. Diplomacy is no longer just something that is done by state representatives, in conference rooms, behind closed doors. Our School helps students develop their voice and leadership potential so that they can confidently join the most important conversations of our time, now.
Quite simply, the need for a good professional school of diplomacy and international relations is greater than ever.
