Digital Diplomacy Scholar Dr. Ilan Manor will visit Winterthur to present his analysis of how Ukraine is using digital technologies in the war and show how important political changes have taken place at great speed, partly due to the digitalisation of diplomacy.

About the Guest Speaker

Ilan Manor is Assistant Professor at Ben Gurion University, Israel. He obtained his PhD from the University of Oxford with a thesis that explored the manner in which nations portray adversaries on official digital diplomacy channels during times of crises.

Manor is co-editor of the book, Public Diplomacy and the Politics of Uncertainty (2021) and author of The Digitalization of Public Diplomacy (2019), both published by Palgrave Macmillan. In a recent publication by International Affairs, Manor argues that “diplomacy is about to enter a new phase, which we call hybrid diplomacy, in which physical and virtual engagements are expected to integrate, complement and empower each other.”
