Practicing Multilateralism

Practicing Multilateralism is a podcast by the Graduate Institute’s Global Governance Centre and the Observatoire du multilatéralisme et des organisations that explores how multilateralism works in practice—beyond theory and into the realities of global cooperation.

Through conversations with diplomats, international civil servants, scholars, and practitioners, the podcast examines how international organizations, states, and non-state actors navigate today’s complex global challenges. From climate governance and global health to trade, peace, and digital regulation, each episode offers insider perspectives on the negotiations, compromises, and innovations shaping collective action.

Grounded in Geneva’s unique ecosystem of international organizations, Practicing Multilateralism provides listeners with a front-row seat to the evolving dynamics of global governance—highlighting both the promises and the limits of working together in an increasingly fragmented world.
