We are pleased to be once again supporting the Otago Foreign Policy School, one of the premier events in New Zealand's international calendar.
Since its inception in 1966, the University of Otago Foreign Policy School has developed into one of the premier events in New Zealand's international calendar. Originally started as a workshop on foreign affairs issues, the School soon attracted the attention of New Zealand's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, which recognised its value as a weekend retreat for officials. Representatives from other government bodies, as well as academics, journalists, diplomats, members of the private sector and NGOs, and interested members of the public also participate regularly.
The 60th University of Otago Foreign Policy School brings together a formidable team of international and national specialists to consider the rules-based order through the lens of five related themes:
- Liberal Institutions and Multilateralism: Theoretical and Empirical Perspectives
- Free Trade, Sovereignty, Big Tech, and Democratic Governance
- Upholding Rules in an Insecure and Unjust World
- Alternative Approaches to an International Rules-Based order
- New Zealand and an International Rules-Based Order under Strain
