A Message from
Executive Director
Harvey Langholtz
Greetings. It is my pleasure to
welcome you to the Peace Operations
Training Institute and our 2016
catalogue of programmes and courses.
Here at POTI we offer self-paced
e-learning on peacekeeping and related topics to students
worldwide. The majority of our students are military
peacekeepers, police, or civilian humanitarian relief workers
already deployed on peacekeeping missions or in training for
deployment. We provide over 2,000 enrolments weekly and
our students study in situ at their own pace in Arabic, English,
French, Portuguese, and Spanish.
The most gratifying part of our work at POTI is hearing directly
from you, our students. You participate in discussions on our
Facebook page, follow us on Twitter, post photos on Flickr,
view our archived videos and webinars, and email our staff and
course authors.
Ive had the privilege of meeting many of you earnest and
sincere men and women working tirelessly to bring relief to
the worlds most troubled regions. I wish you success in your
studies.

[In English]
This course examines the cross-cutting principles and obligations
concerning human rights within the specific context of armed
conflicts and United Nations peace operations. Human rights
is a dimension that transcends all phases and employs all
components of a peace operation, leading to often complex
implementation planning and coordination, which this course
traces and delineates. The course begins by reviewing the
landmark documents and instruments indispensable to the
protection of human rights in theory, before demonstrating how
such protection is enforced and performed on the ground. It
discusses the various types of human rights violations, identifies
the groups of people especially at risk, and conducts a thorough
analysis on the concept of protection. The course contains
important sections on human rights partners and on the process
of accountability, which, as the course demonstrates, is essential
in peace operations if an established peace is to be long-lasting
and sustainable. Ten Lessons, 284 pages.
COURSE AUTHOR: Patrick Marega Castellan is a human rights
consultant who has served in various capacities for United
Nations missions in Haiti, Darfur, Angola, and Liberia.

Protection of Civilians
[In English and French]
The protection of civilians is now a recurrent theme in
peacekeeping mandates. Yet, while much academic work has
been done to highlight the issue, doctrine and guidance are still
underdeveloped. This course seeks to address some of that deficit
by providing a historical perspective as well as suggesting some
practical options for consideration for those undertaking this
task. Consisting of five lessons, the course begins by discussing
the contemporary operating environment for peacekeepers and
how the changing nature of conflict necessitates the protection
of civilians. In order to actualize this sometimes ambiguous
concept, the author then explores the legal basis and mandates
that have been produced on protection and outlines the threats
that peacekeepers face. The course then turns to look at the
current guidance, and the various stakeholders, and ends with
a look at the key principles of protection and how they can
effectively be put into practice. Five lessons, 98 pages.
COURSE AUTHOR: Colonel Robert Manton (Retd), of the Royal
Australian Army, served as the Military Adviser at the Australian
Mission to the United Nations from 2007 through 2011.

This course puts the work of UNMOs and other Military Experts
on Mission in context by offering an enhanced explanation of
peacekeeping operations in general and by illustrating specific
methods and techniques for serving on a peacekeeping mission.
Beginning with a strategic overview of the United Nations,
the course moves through the operational spectrum of the
Department of Peacekeeping Operations and ends at the tactical
level of on the ground knowledge and skills required for an
individual UNMO to succeed. This course has been updated and
revised by a new course author, Lieutenant Colonel Egil Nordli
(retired), Norway. His experience and expertise is reflected in
both new and expanded lessons through updated practical
recommendations and new technical detail. Fourteen lessons,
258 pages.

Gender Awareness
While informative for any student interested in the topic, this course
was especially designed for people who work in the area of peace
and security at the national or regional levels in Africa and require
a practical tool to support and facilitate the implementation of the
women, peace, and security agenda. The first three lessons focus
more broadly on the UNs role in promoting a peace and security
agenda, including from a gender perspective and the role of SCR
1325 (2000) and subsequent resolutions. Within this context,
Lessons Four and Five highlight the challenges and priorities specific
to the African region. Finally, Lesson Six examines the role of both
regional and subregional organizations in supporting national
implementation of the resolution. This course was developed by the
United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of
Women (UN Women) in collaboration with POTI. Six lessons, 226
pages.
