At the Coalface
At the Coalface is a series of conversations hosted by Philippe Rose.
Philippe's guests share stories about their life beyond the headlines of international affairs. They look for lessons learned about making an impact in the world as practitioners in diplomacy, international organisations, NGOs, journalism and the private sector.
Many of Philippe's guests are connected by their common experience of taking time away from work to attend Fletcher School's Global Master of Arts Programme.

Serhat Çubukçuoğlu - On Middle East foreign policy scholarship: making sense and shaping opinion
In this episode, I catch up with Serhat Çubukçuoğlu. Serhat was our first guest on this podcast in September 2021. We spoke about the transition he was embarking on from working in the private sector but with a passion for international affairs, to wanting to turn this passion into a full-time activity. We meet today in Abu Dhabi, where Serhat is starting a new career as a foreign policy expert in a think tank. We talk about his area of research, his professional pivot and some of insights he’s gathered along the way.
Serhat contributed to the recently launched book, Aftermath of War in Europe: The West vs. the Global South?
Recorded on 7 January 2023.
