Overview:
With the majority of all UN peacekeeping missions occurring since 1989 and continuing large scale coalition operations in the Balkans, West Africa, the Indonesian archipelago, Afghanistan and Iraq, the trend lines for stability operations and reconstruction are clear. Sustaining the personnel and equipment required for these missions demands innovative approaches and fresh perspectives. This one-day symposium will discuss the resourcing issues associated with ongoing and future stabilization and reconstruction efforts, facilitating a dialogue beyond the Department of Defense to other government agencies, corporations, thinks thanks and academia to better understand the realities of stability operations, seeking workable, long-term solutions.
