November 16, 2021 (Arta, Djibouti): The IGAD Foreign Service Institute (IFSI) held a three-day workshop on ‘Institutional strengthening of IGAD Diplomatic Academies’. The workshop aimed to enhance the institutional capacity of diplomatic academies across the IGAD region, with a focus on developing the skills needed to strengthen these institutions’ roles in regional diplomacy and foreign service training.

IFSI Director, Amb. Moussa Ali Meigague welcomed the participants and thanked them for their presence.

The primary goal of the workshop was to support the growth and institutional development of IGAD’s diplomatic training institutions. Participants, including thirteen representatives from each IGAD Diplomatic Academy, were equipped with tools and techniques to enhance the functioning and effectiveness of their respective institutions. The workshop addressed several key areas such as institutional capacity building, curriculum development, resource mobilization, partnership, and collaboration.

In his opening address, Amb. Moussa Ali Meigague, IFSI Director, welcomed participants and emphasized the importance of strengthening diplomatic institutions in the region. He reflected on his past experience as Director of the Djibouti Institute of Diplomatic Studies and shared his vision for regional integration.

The workshop was an important step in reinforcing the capacity of regional diplomatic institutions. By equipping participants with practical tools and strategies, the workshop will help enhance the quality and effectiveness of diplomatic training across the IGAD region. This initiative also underscores IFSI’s commitment to fostering regional integration and building a stronger, more collaborative diplomatic community in East Africa.
