The Buffett Institute for Global Affairs has launched a yearlong initiative focused on international diplomacy in turbulent times. The series will include an interactive peace conference simulation designed by Professor Danielle Gilbert. This simulation will give undergraduate students the chance to take on the roles of negotiators in a fictionalized peace process, complete with the pressures and constraints faced by real-world diplomats. The exercise will challenge students to bridge divides and come to an agreement, offering them hands-on experience with the nuances of international negotiation. Students interested in participating in the simulation should reach out to the Buffett Institute.
