Organised by the Peace Operations Training Centre (POTC), this 10-day program will focus on gender mainstreaming in peacekeeping operations, equipping participants with the necessary tools and knowledge to effectively integrate gender considerations in mission environments.

This training is a testament to the growing cooperation between Slovenia and Mongolia in advancing international peace and security. The program will offer Mongolian personnel valuable field-based insights into gender dynamics, conflict-related sexual violence, and strategies for promoting gender equality within peace missions and operations settings. The participants will engage in expert-led lectures and hands-on exercises aimed at fostering a deeper understanding of the critical role gender plays in peacekeeping and humanitarian missions.

We look forward to further strengthening this growing partnership with the Mongolian Armed Forces, enhancing capabilities and ensuring well-preparedness for the complex challenges of international peace operations. This collaboration underscores our shared commitment to building more inclusive, effective, and resilient peace operations worldwide and is already the second collaboration between POTC and Mongolia in 2024.
