Coffee with Ambassadors
Diplomacy should be a field accessible to all. The Embassy of Kosovo and the Young Diplomat have partnered up to create events and a forum where students and young professionals can meet with ambassadors on a regular basis. These events are called Coffee with Ambassadors. Every 3 months a topical issues is discussed with several ambassadors and participants can ask them questions or, even better, provide their point of view. You as a participants provide ambassadors from the field with valuable different and varying perspectives. At the same time you get the chance to meet with peers and network with ambassadors from different countries in The Netherlands.
The next session will be on the 24th of April from 15.00 till 17.00 and focus on the topic of EU enlargement in the Western Balkans. The panel will be formed by the ambassadors of Albania, North Macedonia and Bosnia-Herzegovina and moderated by Hans van den Berg. Coffee with Ambassadors will take place at the House of Europe in The Hague.
