| METHODOLOGY and APPROACH of the Project |
| |
| |
-
To organize high-level seminars and conferences, each meeting with its' own particular focus and framework. In addition to the Challenges Concluding Report, the stand alone seminar reports are available from Project Partner Organizations and
on
the Challenges web-site.
-
Discussions on the theory and practice of peace operations are combined with practical issues of training and education involving visits to national civilian and military peacekeeping training academies and centres.
-
The development of a comprehensive concluding report with recommendations to share with the United Nations and in particular our fellow UN Member States.
-
The Challenges Concluding Report Executive Summary has been translated by the Project Partner Organizations into the UN languages in order to increase the pool of peace operations literature in languages other than English (available on 25 of April in Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian and Spanish).
-
Bilateral and multilateral exchanges and cooperation has been encouraged to take place within, but also beyond the Challenges Project.

The Challenges Concluding Report has been written with the following objectives:
-
to make practical recommendations in order to enhance the international capability to conduct multinational and multidisciplinary peace operations;
-
to inform on current developments on principal issues in contemporary peace operations; and
-
to contribute to maintaining the current momentum for enhancing the effectiveness and legitimacy of international peace operations, as generated by the Brahimi Report and other related initiatives.

The writing of the report has been a joint effort by the Project Partner Organizations.
The chapters are the product of several hands and therefore reflect differencies in style
and emphasis.
Although the chapters have been circulated for review and comment to all
the Project Partners, no attempt has been made to achieve consensus agreement on the findings
and recommendations contained therein.
In the informal and vigorous spirit of the seminars,
the views expressed are those of the individuals concerned and do not necessarily reflect the
positions of their respective institutions or governments. |
