Immersive Expert
Sessions
In addition to core faculty, the programme incorporates immersive sessions with outside experts from diverse policy-relevant fields. These are not stand-alone guest lectures, they are integrated directly into the syllabus to align with the weekly themes and assignments. Participants will engage with experts in context, applying insights immediately in workshops, simulations, and assignments.
