The Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre (KAIPTC) has received a significant boost to its training capabilities through a generous donation of state-of-the-art Information and Communication Technology (ICT) equipment from the Federal Government of Germany.
The contribution, facilitated through the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR), will significantly enhance KAIPTC’s capacity to deliver world-class training for Peace Support Operations.
The donation underscores Germany’s commitment to strengthening global peacekeeping efforts and recognizing the vital role KAIPTC plays in this domain.
The cutting-edge ICT tools will be instrumental in advancing the professional development of peacekeepers, equipping them with the necessary skills and knowledge to effectively address the evolving and complex challenges in international peace and security.
Among the items received are a MacBook, printer, computer monitors, batteries, access points, switches, laptops, pointers, various software packages, an LED screen, and other crucial accessories.
This timely support will enable KAIPTC to integrate more advanced technological resources into its training programs, fostering a more dynamic and effective learning environment for peacekeepers from across the African continent and beyond.
The enhanced ICT infrastructure is also expected to facilitate interactive learning, access to up-to-date information, and the development of crucial digital skills necessary for modern peacekeeping operations. The management of KAIPTC expressed their profound gratitude to the Federal Government of Germany and UNITAR for this invaluable contribution. They emphasized that this donation will significantly strengthen their ability to deliver high-quality training and contribute meaningfully to global peace and security.
