ECD 2016-1

Official photo this morning of the very first course “Rights and Protection of Children in Conflicts” organized this year by the Bamako Peacekeeping School.

Funded by the Federal Republic of Germany, this training brings together 25 women and men whose job is precisely to take into account the security of so-called “at risk” populations on the African continent. Representatives of their nations, international organizations or NGOs, they came to Bamako to complete their expertise by receiving ours.

Created in 2015 thanks to a fruitful collaboration with the NGO “Save the Children”, this internship is still too rare in our curriculum, for lack of donors. Thank you therefore to Germany for its loyal support in areas relating to the security of populations in Peace Support Operations.

End of school Friday afternoon, good luck to the new promotion!
