Published purpose

This project aims to increase the effectiveness of United Nations (UN) peacekeeping by reducing peacekeeper fatalities and increasing the capabilities of UN peacekeeping missions to implement their mandates in a gender-responsive manner. This project supports the UN Department of Peace Operations, Department of Operational Support, and Department of Management Strategy, Policy and Compliance in developing, revising, and delivering specialized training. This is to better prepare uniformed personnel and civilians deploying to UN peace operations to support the UN Secretary General's Action for Peacekeeping and Action for Peacekeeping Plus agenda. The training focuses on leadership, technology, medical, and mine action themes.
