ZHAW International Business Podium: In honor of our senior lecturer, Khaldoun Dia-Eddine
Why has the Middle East become a global mediation hotspot? The session of the ZHAW International Business Podium is dedicated to an important question of our time – and at the same time honors Khaldoun Dia-Eddine's outstanding commitment to the ZHAW School of Management and Law in 14 years of service.
In recent decades, the Middle East has increasingly engaged in mediation activities related to international conflicts in a variety of ways. The results have been interesting and diverse, and they can sometimes rival those of traditional global mediators.
This observation is discussed by Khaldoun Dia-Eddine, who continues to enrich the work of the ZHAW Center for Global Competitiveness with a reduced workload after his official retirement on August 1, with exciting guests at the ZHAW International Business Podium in honor of his many years of work. Together they raise questions and find sometimes surprising answers: Is the region consciously developing its diplomacy and mediation capacities? How can their cultural backgrounds be assessed? And what impact do these developments have on traditional mediation centers like Switzerland?
