Foreign Service Programme European study tour

Members of the Oxford University Foreign Service Programme (FSP) undertook their annual European tour in March.

The tour, an integral part of the Foreign Service Programme, took in Brussels, Strasbourg, Geneva and Paris. Participants visited a range of international, European and other institutions, including the EU, NATO, the European Court of Human Rights, various UN and other bodies in Geneva such as the International Committee of the Red Cross, and the Quai d'Orsay (Foreign Ministry) in Paris, and also met with local members of UK diplomatic missions.

Foreign Service Programme members are mainly serving diplomats from a range of countries spending an intensive academic year in Oxford. The programme has been in operation for over 40 years, and offers a Certificate and Postgraduate Diploma in Diplomatic Studies, leading to a Master of Studies in Diplomatic Studies.
