Established in 2004, the AYD prepares future diplomats, civil servants and social entrepreneurs for international careers. The Program is known for its world-class faculty, practitioners-oriented approach and a network of more than 3000 graduates from over 60 countries.

In the academic year 2023/2024 the program will be conducted in a hybrid format – with 4 online sessions and 4 in-person sessions organised in Warsaw*.
