Young Cultural Diplomacy Forum 2025 for International Students:

Applications are invited to apply for the Young Cultural Diplomacy Forum 2025 in Indonesia. All International applicants can apply for the cultural forum. The Institute of Arts, Economy, and Diplomatic Studies (IAEDS) offers a 6-week Virtual Certification Program that is open to all CSCD enrollees and alumni. The forum’s goal is to bring influential people together to discuss how culture can alter international diplomacy. YCDF Bali will offer a contemplative yet progressive forum for discussion.

The Cultural Diplomacy Forum in Bali, Indonesia, is a fully funded conference that will take place in Bali from December 18 to 20, 2025. Candidates from all over the world are welcome to apply; IELTS is not necessary, and there are no academic field restrictions. The YCDF was previously held in Bangkok, Doha, and Dubai. Bali is renowned for its amazing fusion of culture, nature, hospitality, and breathtaking natural beauty. It is frequently referred to as the “Island of the Gods.”

Building on the success of previous editions in Dubai, Doha, and Bangkok, the Young Diplomacy Forum (YCDF) 4.0 in Bali brings together up-and-coming leaders, scholars, and practitioners to examine the transformational role of culture in international diplomacy. Bali is a perfect place to rethink how diplomacy may integrate cultural wisdom, myth, and creativity while transcending power politics because of its distinctive combination of spirituality, art, and living traditions. YCDF Bali will offer a thoughtful but forward-thinking forum for discussion at a time when Southeast Asia is emerging as a major force in world affairs and the Global South is forming a new international order.
