ISS/TfP to host the Strategic Guidance Framework (SGF) Police Command meeting
16 Sep 2014
The SGF Police Command thematic meeting is the third thematic SGF meeting for 2014 since the promulgation of the main SGF policy on 1 February 2014. The previous two thematic meetings took place in Oslo (19 – 21 March 2014) and Beijing (29 June 1 July 2014).
The meeting will take place from 21-23 October 2014 in Pretoria, South Africa. The SGF aims to enhance the effectiveness of UN Police peacekeeping through consistent; harmonised approaches to the provision of public safety; police reform and support to local police services; as well as more sophisticated recruitment of police personnel to have the appropriate specialized skills and experience for the new tasks they are mandated to fulfill in peace operations.
The SGF Police Command meeting will provide for detailed discussions from senior police experts with peace support operation experience and from research and academic experts on the topic. The end state of the meeting in Pretoria is therefore to make a substantive contribution to United Nations Department of Peacekeeping Operations (UN DPKO) development of the SGF by providing policy advice, guidelines and standards on command in all international police functions in peace support operations.
The appointed events coordinator for this meeting is Ilse Delport. Ilse’s contact details are as follows. Partners are invited to attend the meeting at own cost.
