This course explores how strategy and policy are formulated, the roles of key institutions and the importance of inter-agency collaboration in addressing complex and evolving security threats. A critical discussion of the principles, frameworks and processes that shape national security decision making will be conducted as part of its curriculum. Through case studies, simulations and scenario base learning, participants will gain practical insights into the coordination mechanisms, policy instruments, and leadership approaches necessary to protect national interests and maintain stability in an increasingly interconnected global environment.
