12-Week Public Diplomacy Course

An ambassador is not trained to win every argument. The ambassador is trained to explain clearly, verify carefully, speak humanely, correct errors, and know when not to answer. Independent civil-society education—not an agency of the Government of Israel.

Truth before speed. Credibility before a slogan.
