Event Objectives

The main objective of this training proposal is to prepare delegations of incoming members of the Peacebuilding Commission for their terms by  familiarising/orienting them in the working methods and procedures of the Commission, as well as to give Member States the opportunity to informally discuss the main objectives of the PBC and its Programme of Work in 2021.

Participants will leave the training with knowledge of how the Commission functions – its working methods and procedures, the different mandates associated with the Commission, and the expected results/outcomes. [The training will engage members in order for them to better understand the work of the PBC.]
