The National Security and Diplomacy Programme includes analysis of basic national security issues and potential international and regional conflicts.  A key issue is the application of resources in peace and war in order to strengthen national security.  Israeli and Middle East regional security affairs are considered within the context of global politics.  Internationally known Israeli academics and national security experts will address participants. Lectures are supplemented by case study analyses; group discussions and group work; workshops; study tours, games and simulations.  The Programme aims to expand participants’ understanding of current security issues; to increase their capacity for innovative planning and implementation of policy in response to national security problems and to improve their decision-making skills.
