2026 Cohort of the Executive Programme in International Politics and Diplomacy for Health
We are thrilled to welcome the 2026 cohort of the Executive Programme in International Politics and Diplomacy for Health, a joint initiative of the Stockholm School of Economics and Karolinska Institutet.
This year's programme brings together 33 fellows from across the globe, representing a diverse mix of public sector, private sector, and civil society professionals. They will be joined by an outstanding faculty including Aparajita Ramakrishnan, David Miliband, Ebere Okereke, Elhadj As Sy, Gabriel Leung, Hanan Mohamed Al Kuwari, Helen Clark, Helen Evans, José Luis Castro, Katrín Jakobsdóttir, Mark Dybul, Nicola Clase, Per Alfredsson, Peter Piot, Richard Horton, Thoraya Obaid, Sania Nishtar, and Toshi Ezoe.
Over the coming weeks, fellows will explore topics including transformative leadership, formal and informal decision-making, public-private sector crossovers, the future of global health diplomacy, and more. The programme follows a practitioner-to-practitioner learning model, comprising five online workshops and a five-day Masterclass in Sigtuna, Sweden in June. This is the third consecutive cohort of this growing global health diplomacy community.
