Description

In contemporary conflict regions, civilian and military peacebuilding actors often operate simultaneously in the same space but pursue different and sometimes contradictory objectives. The complicated legacy of many recent multidimensional peace operations challenges the conceptual and normative frameworks that underpin multilateral missions. This course examines the normative, operational, and cultural differences between military and civilian peacebuilding actors and explores approaches to collaboration – drawing on expert inputs, thematic discussions, and case studies.

This course is offered by swisspeace in collaboration with the Swiss Armed Forces International Command.

Fee information
1'700 CHF (excluding travel, visa costs, accomodation)
The course consists of preparatory readings and a 3-day on-site training (Wednesday to Friday). The course schedule is 9h00-12h30 and 14h00-17h30 (may be subject to change).
