"With over 20 years of activity, the Institute has proven a not very popular truth – if we rely on the legacy of our predecessors, with small, quiet, and well-ordered steps, we can create a great history."

I have a strong and long-standing connection with the Diplomatic Institute (DI). As a student, I won several DI essay competitions, which took me to Geneva and Brussels. Това отвори очите ми за света на дипломацията, който избрах за кариера на живота ми. Днес, като млад дипломат, мога да кажа, че ДИ ми помогна да направя правилния професионален избор за себе си.“

"Working with the Diplomatic Institute is a tremendous privilege—despite my many years of experience in administration, I am always genuinely impressed by the innovative approaches used, combined with the search for solutions that are appropriate to the realities."

"The establishment of the Diplomatic Institute in 2003 was a unique event. For the first time in the history of the Bulgarian diplomatic service, it had its own school for training civil servants working to implement the country's foreign policy."

Over the past two decades, the Diplomatic Institute has established itself as an undisputed hub for training, public, and research activities of national and regional significance. With their vision, consistency, and ambition, its dedicated leaders and team of professionals fully embody the high standards that the Institute has set for itself over the years."
