(September 2005). Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (September 2006), Phnom Phen, Cambodia (July 2007), Honolulu, USA (September 2007) and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (June 2008). The series emphasizes the multidimensional aspects of peace operations today by gathering a group of civilians from federal governments, U.N. personnel, civilian police, international and non-governmental agencies as well as military personnel from many levels. Participants gain a greater appreciation for the complexities of modern peace operations through the discussions that take place in small group breakout sessions. The program focuses on training the trainers and content development, providing a philosophical complement. The Center adds those pieces not readily supplied by the other players, such as subject matter experts, many of who assist with presentations and training activities after arriving directly from field activities conducted on behalf of their own employer. It assists all of the partnering organizations to bring their greatest strengths to the event and ensures that the appropriate level of complexity is addressed. Funding is provided principally through the Asia Pacific Regional Initiative of US CINCPAC. Host nations supply a site and sponsor activities during the event. Co-sponsorship by the United Nations Department of Peacekeeping Operations provides an open forum for discussion. Components may play a role, such as US Army Pacific or regional organizations, in providing administrative and conferencing support. Upcoming Events:
