Cultural Diplomacy in the Global Economy: A Forum for Young Leaders (CDEC) is an international network of young people with an interest in the global economy and its relationship to the public sector, international politics, civil society and the environment. The program has been developed in recognition of the importance of combining perspectives from different fields and levels of society in discussing the challenges to the global economy, and on the understanding that "economic bridges" play an important role in promoting global peace and stability.

Economic, political and cultural conditions leading to the development of the current situation will be assessed both at the national and supranational level, with a particular focus on the influence of corporations and powerful individuals, and the function of international organizations and the European Union as venues for decision-making beyond nation states.
