The Italian Newsagency AGI has just published the following article on the ISDI corner Blog:

“(VELINO) Roma, 10 mag. – As of today the Foreign Ministry has a new learning and media interactive online tool. The blog is called the “Isdi learning corner – get your brain in motion”, and has been created by the ministry’s Diplomatic Institute (Isdi). This initiative has been implemented to provide a series of information and directives about the resources of interest available on-line that will contribute to the professional and personal growth of the ministry’s diplomats and administrative employees. The objective is also to share the contents with other foreign institutes and diplomatic academies. The website is in fact in English. The ISDI “learning corner” is divided into various categories (books, announcements, creativity, leadership, etc…). It does, however have innovative characteristics for an “institutional” blog and users will be allowed to post comments on-line concerning the contents and suggest subjects to be discussed or interesting ideas. Furthermore, the website is open and can be visited and used by everyone, so much so that there are no restrictions as far as joining it is concerned. The blog is part of a series of initiatives that the Isdi is implementing to better exploit new technology and particular the social media, which are increasingly becoming the most popular sources of information and training. vel .”
