Share Your AI Negotiation Practices with Your Peers

Join a global community of negotiators, mediators, and students learning to collaborate with AI through Monthly Thematic Simulations. These interactive sessions offer hands-on practice in using your AI Assistant to map stakeholder positions, explore areas of compromise, and plan negotiation strategies with greater clarity and precision.

Each simulation focuses on a different domain—such as climate diplomacy, humanitarian response, or irregular migration—allowing you to test and refine your skills across real-world challenges. By learning alongside peers and guided by expert facilitators, you’ll develop a more adaptive, collaborative, and strategic approach to complex negotiations with the support of AI.

This journey builds steadily toward the Global Simulation on 25 - 26 April 2026, where your preparation and AI fluency will come to life in a high-stakes, team-based negotiation environment.

Monthly AI Negotiation Simulation

The AI Negotiation Challenge offers live, monthly simulations where participants apply their AI Assistants in realistic, issue-based negotiation scenarios and share their good practices. These sessions are designed to build fluency, sharpen strategy, and foster peer learning.

Explore Diverse Themes:

Climate diplomacy
Humanitarian access and crisis response
Global migration and displacement coordination
Health diplomacy and cross-border collaboration
Political stabilisation and multilateral security

What You’ll Gain:

Hands-on practice applying your AI Assistant in live negotiations
Deeper insight into stakeholder dynamics and influence mapping
Critical reflection on strategy, language, and decision-making
Exposure to diverse approaches through peer exchange
Preparation for the Global Simulation in May 2026
