It has no political dominance.

The International Association of Young Diplomats aims to unite young career diplomats aged 18 to 40 years and functions in accordance with the norms and principles of the Charter of the United Nations and international law. The Association promotes the strengthening of personal interaction between aspiring diplomats, which will subsequently contribute to strengthening ties and trust between countries and their political elites.
