The Académie Diplomatique Internationale (ADI) is an independent and neutral institution dedicated to promoting modern diplomacy and contributing to the understanding and analysis of the emerging dynamics in international affairs.

In recognition of the impact of globalization, the ADI engages not only the traditional diplomatic and foreign policy communities, but also new actors such as corporations, advocacy groups, and others involved in shaping regional and international dynamics.

From its historic residence in Paris, the ADI convenes conferences, seminars and public debates on contemporary issues, conducts training programmes in modern diplomacy, and provides other services to the Paris-based diplomatic, business and foreign policy communities.  In addition, the ADI works with partner institutions in developing strategy groups and projects related to diverse aspects of modern diplomacy.
