Future Diplomats' Club

The work of Future Diplomats' Club has evolved from holding public lectures and meetings to addressing the larger global threats and forces that impact them.  Recognizing that the problems facing Georgia are increasingly more complex and urgent, we have refined the way in which we work around an ambitious new strategy.Being the first Diplomatic Society in Georgia, created in 2011, our strategy puts the Youth at the center and organizes our work around six key areas: Equality, Liberty, Education, NATO, EU and UN. By linking these six areas in an integrated approach, we can better leverage our unique assets and direct all our resources to involving Georgian youth, face problems in front of which communities unable to act effectively and Euro-Atlantic integration.The Youth is at the center of our work because together we can change the trajectory of the threats to our country, and help ensure sustainable development in the face of contemporary global challenges.To accomplish our ambitious goals, we work to educate and influence people into making sustainable choices and decisions, including University and School students. Our most valuable project – The School of Diplomacy – unites more than 600 motivated and open-minded school students every month and gives them a unique opportunity to change the course of their lives.Partnerships play a key role in FDC's efforts to influence the course the development of Georgian Youth. Lasting Sustainable development is achieved through collaboration with a range of extraordinary partners. We leverage the strengths of these collaborations to achieve great success.Among our partners, we are honored to mention the Free University of Tbilisi, our home and major partner, the Aspen Institute, an educational and policy studies organization based in Washington, NATO Public Diplomacy Division and Vienna Diplomatic Academy, Information Center on NATO & EU, the state Ministry on European and Euro-Atlantic integration and the Europe-Georgia Institute.One of our main aims is commitment to helping people realize their full potential.
