To stimulate such discussion and answer the question above, Diplo organised a cybersecurity diplomacy ‘deep dive workshop’ on 17 February joined by diplomats of the African Permanent Missions to the UN in New York. The session aimed at enhancing African diplomats’ practical understanding of the UN framework of responsible state behaviour in cyberspace, particularly the cyber-norms and confidence-building measures, the ongoing multilateral processes, and the future institutional dialogue. To that end, an interactive simulation on cyberattacks against critical infrastructure was delivered, allowing diplomats to gain hands-on experience in navigating cyber norms, negotiation dynamics, and multilateral and multistakeholder cooperation. Equally important was the timing: the workshop was organised on the sidelines of the 10th substantive session of the UN Open-Ended Working Group (OEWG) on cybersecurity, thereby coupling the learning process with practice. This workshop, organised in cooperation with the Permanent Missions of Germany and Egypt to the UN in New York, is part of Diplo’s bigger cyber capacity-building programme for African diplomats, supported by the GIZ and Germany.
