Science Diplomacy refers to the intersection of science and foreign affairs.
While the two disciplines have intertwined since antiquity, the concept of science diplomacy is much more recent, with its theoretical roots developing following the end of the Cold War.
This lecture will explore the historical developments of science diplomacy and provide a snapshot of the praxis at the current moment, where it faces a vital crossroads.
