This module focuses on the action and interaction the United Nations (UN) has been fomenting during its entire existence. It will take the students deeper into the world of multilateral diplomacy by explaining and interpreting more problematic Articles of the UN Charter. The students will understand how international justice works on settling sensitive disputes and grasp the amplitude of the work done by the world organisation in promoting and protecting human rights. It will also exemplify how non-state actors could help UN achieve its mandates. Based on the knowledge accumulated, practical exercises will take students behind the closed doors of conference rooms where decisions are made and taught to do what professional diplomats do.
