Annual General Meeting and Commander's Workshop-2017
The Asia Pacific Peace Operations Training Centres conducted their workshop at Taj Samudra Hotel from August 1 to 3. The forum brought together military experts from 17 countries. This year’s event was hosted by the Sri Lanka Army.
The idea was initiated by the Bangladesh Institute of Peace Support Operations Training (BIPSOT) in 2008 with direct assistance from Global Peace Operations Initiatives (GPOI). The theme of this year’s AAPTC Workshop was “Challenges of Developing a Robust Peacekeeping Mindset’.
The three-day program provided a platform to identify and discuss the requirement of robust peacekeeping, its relevance and the challenges on implementation.
