背景信息

Security sector reform (SSR) is a country-owned process aimed at ensuring that security and justice actors are accountable to the state and the population; that they deliver effective, efficient and accessible security and justice services that meet the needs of the people; that they operate within a framework of good governance, the rule of law and respect for human rights; and that they are legitimate. SSR addresses issues such as the mismanagement of security and justice services; the inability of security and justice institutions to deliver their services equally to meet the needs of all groups in society; and the lack or absence of accountability and independent and well-functioning oversight mechanisms.

方法

UNITAR PTP adopts a learning approach that emphasises experiential and collaborative learning. This approach focuses on the learning needs, interests and styles of participants to ensure relevance and retention of content. It places particular emphasis on the active participation of learners through practice-oriented learning environments.

The UNITAR PTP approach allows participants to share their knowledge and experiences and contribute to a dynamic learning process. During this process, participants not only acquire information but also contribute to building their knowledge in a coherent and directly applicable way to the reality of peace operations. Trainers lead participants through this process, delivering and transmitting information, clarifying doubts and supporting participants through different activities.

The UNITAR PTP training approach places particular emphasis on monitoring and evaluation. This process allows for the continuous development of a course structure and activities that best suit the participants’ areas of interest. This also allows for a review process that systematically improves training design and delivery for future versions of the course.

At the successful completion of the course participants will be awarded with a badge.
