| PRODUCTS & EXPECTED END-STATE |
| |
| |
|
The outcome of our work is aimed at resulting in:
|
|

| |
 |
|
Exchange of Views and Experiences,Pretoria Seminar November 1998 |
|
| |
|
The project aims to stimulate a
debate addressing the challenges facing peace operations as we are entering the 21st Century.
The expected end-state is two-fold. First, an increased understanding of the challenges and
issues addressed through discussions and information sharing. During the seminar series we have
produced a project report in connection to each seminar. Forming the basis for the work on the
Concluding Report will be nine seminar reports published by and in connection with the seminars
in Stockholm, Moscow, Amman, Pretoria, Carlisle, New Delhi, Tokyo, Cornwallis and Buenos Aires.
The Concluding Report will condense the knowledge and insights generated through the process,
an executive summary produced in multiple languages and be shared with the wider Membership of the United Nations. |

| Secondly, an increasingly widened, strengthened and truly international peace operations network
will be created. The project has so far promoted and encouraged bilateral and multilateral
exchanges between influential organizations and individuals working in the peace operations
field that normally do not interact on a regular basis. |
