Objective:

Addressing pressing policy and diplomacy challenges through creativity and collective intelligence methods and training diplomats and civil servants around the world.

Mission:

In service to the Egmont Institute, Belgium’s leading international think tank, Dreamocracy has designed and led a large number of in-person and online workshops and training sessions for diplomats and civil servants from around the world. They have been received very positively and repeated on many occasions in each country. We have thus developed 2 to 5-day modules on:

  • Political communication for Dubai senior civil servants
  • Influencing and lobbying for Palestian officials
  • Creativity and public administration for senior civil servants in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Mali
  • Creative diplomacy and conflict resolution for Belgian Foreign Affairs staff

All the workshops involve working on very real, immediate and concrete challenges identified by the participants themselves, thus ensuring immediate benefit and increasing the participants ability to internalise the new methods used.

Institution:
