In a unique and inspiring initiative to engage with the youth, India’s External Affairs Minister (EAM) conducted a special summit with students, where he imparted valuable diplomacy lessons. The event aimed to encourage young minds to understand the nuances of international relations and the role of diplomacy in shaping the nation’s foreign policy.
The summit, organized at a prominent educational institution in New Delhi, saw the participation of enthusiastic students from diverse academic backgrounds. The External Affairs Minister, along with a panel of eminent diplomats and experts, engaged in interactive sessions, discussions, and lectures to provide insights into the intricacies of global diplomacy.
“The youth of India are the torchbearers of the nation’s future. Their understanding of diplomacy and international affairs is crucial in shaping our global standing and fostering positive relations with other nations,” emphasized the External Affairs Minister in his inaugural address.
During the sessions, the students had the opportunity to raise questions and discuss various aspects of diplomacy, such as bilateral and multilateral relations, soft power, economic diplomacy, and India’s strategic interests on the global stage.
The EAM also shared experiences from India’s diplomatic endeavors, citing real-life examples of how effective diplomacy has led to significant achievements in advancing the country’s interests and promoting peace and cooperation.
“This summit has been an eye-opener for me. Understanding the complex world of diplomacy and how it impacts our nation’s position on the global map has been a truly enriching experience,” said Arushi Gupta, a student participant.
The summit also provided a platform for young scholars to present their research and ideas on international relations and diplomacy. The Minister commended the students’ initiatives and encouraged them to pursue careers in the field of foreign affairs, stating that their fresh perspectives and innovative ideas would be instrumental in shaping India’s future diplomatic endeavors.
This novel approach to engaging with students is part of the Indian government’s efforts to promote greater awareness and understanding of foreign policy matters among the youth. By fostering an interest in diplomacy and international affairs, the government aims to empower the younger generation to become informed global citizens and active participants in shaping India’s destiny on the world stage.
“Engaging with the youth in this manner is a significant step in creating a well-informed and diplomatically astute citizenry. As future leaders, their grasp of global issues and diplomatic principles will play a vital role in India’s progress and development,” remarked Ambassador Ramesh Singh, one of the panelists at the summit.
The successful summit with the External Affairs Minister has left a lasting impact on the participants, who now carry a deeper appreciation for the complexities and opportunities in diplomacy. As India looks toward a promising future in the global arena, nurturing a cadre of well-informed and enthusiastic young diplomats is expected to be instrumental in advancing the country’s interests and contributing to a more interconnected and peaceful world.
