1. The Korea National Diplomatic Academy of the Foreign Ministry will hold the 47th 'diplomacy workshop for undergraduate students' for about 70 selected undergraduates from across the country from August 21 to 25.
2. The diplomacy workshop for undergraduate students has been held during summer and winter vacations since 2004 in order to raise Korean undergraduates' understanding of diplomatic issues and build their global capacity. So far, the KNDA has held a total of 46 workshops, in which about 2,300 students participated.
3. The upcoming workshop will consist of various lessons and discussion programs, including lessons on the ROK's public diplomacy, the ROK's relations with major countries, and development cooperation, as well as a mock international conference.
o Question-and-answer and discussion sessions with lecturers, including incumbent and former diplomats and KNDA professors, are expected to provide participating students with a precious opportunity to better understand the ROK's foreign policy and communicate with the Foreign Ministry.
4. The next workshop will take place in February next year. Related details will be provided through universities across the country in December this year and applications will be received thereafter.
