Geneva School of Diplomacy and International Relations

The Geneva School of Diplomacy & International Relations was founded by Dr Murphy an experienced diplomat and Ms. Shahenaz Barragan an established entrepreneur, in 2003. GSD opened its doors with, in the first year, eleven Master’s degree students. At the beginning of Year 4 GSD had already educated some 134 students. Numbers have increased each academic year. Some fifteen of GSD’s graduate degree students are serving ambassadors to the United Nations. Among GSD’s honorary doctorates are Seven Presidents/Prime Ministers of a country, five Ministers of a country, one winner of the Nobel Prize for Peace, and several other famous global personalities. It can therefore be understood that while GSD is relatively “new”, its President and faculty are actually long-time well-known figures in the diplomatic world and international community.

The legal status of GSD is a Société Anonyme incorporated under Swiss Law, authorised by the Department of Private Education of Geneva, and EduQua certified.

FOCUS ON ESSENTIAL SKILLS

Working as an international public servant requires more than a theoretical foundation. Our methods at GSD seek to prepare students to take those theories of international relations and put them into practice. Through a unique teaching method, our students are taught to refine analytical skills and to utilize those skills towards today’s most pressing issues (e.g. conflict resolution, global health, climate change, crisis management, and human rights).

Public and private executives need to be good advocates – articulating a vision, arguing for that perspective, and building political consensus towards that vision. This process requires an intercultural understanding and the ability to articulate express oneself and negotiate. At GSD we focus on and develop these essential skills
