The Commonwealth Secretariat hosted the launch of Diplo’s new publication *Strengthening
Voices of Small and Developing Countries – 10 Years of Diplomatic Training*,

diplomats and other officials who participated in the diplomatic training
organised by DiploFoundation and supported by Malta and the Commonwealth
over the last decade. The launch was addressed by the Maltese High
Commissioner to UK Joseph Zammit Tabone, Swiss Ambassador in UK Alexis
Lautenberg, Director of DiploFoundation Dr Jovan Kurbalija and one of

which the Commonwealth/Malta course has made towards strengthening the
participation of small and developing states in modern international
relations.
