DIPLOMATHONTM is a student conference series that aims at providing a one-stop learning module on international relations, geo-politics, public policy, public speaking & world affairs along with modeling of global organisations which reflect the overall global diplomacy portrait, including the BRICS, SAARC & avant-garde moots.
