As part of the Diplomatic Forum organised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to mark Bahrain Diplomatic Day, observed annually on January 14, a session on artificial intelligence in diplomacy was held.

The session was delivered by Manas Chawla, Director of the Oxbridge Diplomatic Academy and Chief Executive Officer of London Politica.

The session addressed several key topics, including the geopolitical dimensions of AI.

Its role as a support tool for diplomatic decision-making, and its applications in enhancing the performance of diplomatic missions.

It also examined the role of AI in strategic communications and public diplomacy, as well as issues related to security, ethics, and diplomatic protocol, in line with rapid global digital developments.

The session concluded with an interactive presentation on the practical use of AI in diplomatic work, followed by a discussion and questions from heads of the Kingdom of Bahrain’s diplomatic and consular missions abroad.
