Economic Diplomacy is defined as the use of diplomacy to foster economic growth through activities such as enhancing trade, expanding market access, and attracting investments.
Join us on Monday 14th August for a seminar with Dr Ahmed Rashad as he discusses how this research aims to develop a framework for understanding the pillars of UAE's economic diplomacy and its boundaries. Economic diplomacy plays a critical role in the United Arab Emirates' strategy for promoting its economic interests globally. By identifying the key pillars of UAE's economic diplomacy and defining their scope, this framework will provide a conceptual structure for identifying the elements of economic diplomacy and serves as a guide for policymakers and researchers to understand the key components of UAE's economic diplomacy.
