Diplomacy and Development Committee
The DDC is a fairly new committee but it will have a focus on the three key areas that are entirely for the benefit of our members.
The first will be service, so that we can support our local communities and even those around the world so we can comfortably say that we are doing our part for those around us.
Second, it is paramount that any individual should upskill in both hard and soft skills. As such, the DDC will aim to constantly offer workshops that will help SIB members level up their own capabilities.
Finally, Jobs, both to keep our members going through university and also Internships to provide that opportunity for specific exposure to an industry that interests them.
The DDC is in charge of organizing the yearly Geneva trip, the Diplomat Drinks, as well as this year’s networking gala.

Chair: Brody Xin
