The Hague, 5-8 May 2026
Alongside the symposium, thinc. Education – the educational arm of thinc. that provides both online learning (through the thinc. Academy) and in-person events and trainings – concluded its flagship Masterclass with a week-long Training Conference in The Hague, the third and final module of this four-month intensive programme that brought together twenty-five selected professionals and university students from Canada, Australia, the United States, Ireland, Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Israel, Singapore, Côte d’Ivoire, and the Netherlands.
Following three months of online training guided by several thinc. fellows – including the Israel on Trial Foundational Course and exclusive webinars with leading experts in international law and diplomacy – participants travelled to The Hague for a full week of in-person training. The programme included visits to international courts, lectures by visiting speakers, sessions alongside fellows and symposium speakers, attendance at the Symposium itself, and a culminating practical debate exercise in which participants applied their knowledge to current issues in international law.
A testament to thinc. Education’s mission, the week offered an immersive, high-level encounter with international law in practice – from theoretical foundations to The Hague’s institutional realities – alongside exceptional networking and direct access to the latest expertise in international law, diplomacy, and Middle East politics.
