The International Relations Society of Kenya in partnership with @KAS_Kenya and @cuea_official recently hosted the 2026 Career and Mentorship Forum. The forum acted as an incubator for the next generation of Kenyan voices in global affairs. Students and young professionals had interactive sessions with diplomats, international relations practitioners, and scholars on how to build impactful careers in Diplomacy and International Relations.

A proud moment as we celebrate the graduation of the 2026 IRSK-KAS Young Diplomats Fellowship Cohort. As they close this chapter, we welcome the incoming 2026 cohort to build on their legacy. Here's to shaping global conversations and strengthening international ties!
