The concept of Responsibility to Protect (R2P) was initiated at the UN in 2005, leaning on the work provided by the Canadian-led initiative of the International Commission on Intervention and State Security (ICISS). Clarification of the concept has been difficult and its application vexatious as well as disastrous. To contribute to the ongoing dialogue on the need to clarify the concept and also fill the gap in knowledge and information, the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre (KAIPTC) is scheduled to run a two-week course to provide the necessary professional training, requisite knowledge as well as the basic information on the concept of R2P.
The aim of the course is to train African policy makers, government officials, military, police and personnel from civil society organizations on the concept of R2P and its implementation.
The main objectives of the course are:
The collaborative problem-based learning approach will be used in the delivery of the Course. A combination of tools such as lectures, case studies, small group work exercises, Q & A and simulation will be used to illustrate and clarify the concept of the Responsibility to Protect under the guidance of a team of experienced facilitators.
Each participant shall be required to pay a non-refundable commitment fee of $500 USD (five hundred US Dollars).
Only fully completed applications that are submitted via the application portal will be considered.
