Civilian Protection and Violence Prevention with Local Communities in Conflic...Nonviolent Peaceforce
The document outlines the agenda and objectives of a one-day course on unarmed civilian protection (UCP) for UN representatives. The course aims to provide an overview of the key concepts, principles and strategies of UCP, and how it can be implemented to protect civilians and reduce violence in conflict areas. It covers the basics of UCP, its core work, and how UCP works in practice through proactive presence, deterrence, influence and encouragement to expand political space for nonviolent actors.
In New York in June 2011, Nonviolent Peaceforce (NP) conducted five trainings, consultations and presentations to United Nations and UN-related organizations, including the Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC). Marking NP and unarmed civilian peacekeeping's (UCP) biggest exposure ever at the UN, the presentations create further opportunities to advance policy and funding for UCP.
The UN’s invitation and sponsorship of the trainings attest to the international recognition unarmed civilian peacekeeping is gaining through NP’s civilian protection efforts in Sri Lanka, the Philippines and Sudan.
“LEE’s PERCEPTIONS ON HUMAN SECURITY IN AFRICA”John LEE
This document summarizes Lee's perceptions on human security in Africa. It discusses how human security is threatened in multiple ways across Africa, including economic, food, health, environmental, personal, community, and political security dimensions. It also examines factors that shape security, like conflicts, instability, attacks, poverty, and disease. Conflict is prevalent in Africa due to factors like colonial boundaries, poverty, competition over resources, and refugee crises undermine stability. To improve human security, the document recommends policies promoting social inclusion, equitable access to resources, human rights protections, and partnerships between security institutions and other organizations.
Unarmed Civilian Protection Meets Sustainability - PresentationRotary International
Unarmed civilian protection is a practice of deploying specially trained civilians to prevent or reduce violence and provide direct protection to civilians. It recognizes local leadership and protects communities so they can make their own decisions. Unarmed civilian protectors build relationships with communities and respond to invitations to deploy. They encourage local ownership, training, and funding while remaining independent and nonpartisan. Evaluations show this approach saves lives and empowers communities to stay safely in their homes.
This document discusses the concepts of peace and security. It begins by defining peace as a social and political condition that ensures individual, societal, and national development through a state of harmony and healthy relationships. Security is defined as a secure condition free from extreme threats that endanger core values.
It then contrasts traditional and new understandings of peace and security. Traditionally, it focused on military threats, but new conceptions view it more broadly in terms of threats to human existence from issues like terrorism, human rights abuses, health crises, and environmental degradation.
Peace and security are seen as prerequisites for democracy and development to function, as democracy cannot work and development cannot occur without peace and security first being established
In this presentation, I will try to achieve 4 objectives.
I will discuss that there seems to be some emerging consensus on the scope of “Human Security.”
I will show the complementarity between the “State Security” and “Human Security.”
I will explain that a “Human Security Approach” offers us a useful framework to assess & analyze the multiple threats that vulnerable people face.
I will discuss that this multidisciplinary “Human Security Approach,” overcoming academic compartmentalization in “delivering as one,” is effective in narrowing the gap through the dual strategies of empowerment and protection.

This document is an essay submission cover sheet from a student at the University of York submitting an essay on securitization of humanitarian aid in Afghanistan. The cover sheet confirms the student has followed submission guidelines, including formatting the essay properly, including an accurate word count, and not including their name. The attached essay abstract indicates it will examine the impact of civil-military relations on humanitarian principles in Afghanistan after 9/11, including whether securitization of aid was necessary and the consequences of militarized intervention.
The document discusses the concept of human security, which takes an individual-centered view of security rather than focusing on the state. It defines human security as consisting of economic, food, health, environmental, personal, community, and political security. It discusses two schools of thought on human security - freedom from fear, which focuses on protecting individuals from violent conflicts, and freedom from want, which broadens threats to include hunger, disease, and natural disasters. The document also examines the relationship between human development and human security, how different countries rank on human development and security indices, and how Indonesia's government deals with human security issues through policy interventions.
Defence, Security And Human Security ConceptsAnurag Gangal
The document discusses India's traditional and modern concepts of defence, security, and human security. It outlines India's internal security threats such as terrorism, naxalism, and communalism. It argues that India's approach needs to shift from a traditional territorial focus to a more comprehensive human security approach that ensures the welfare of individual citizens.
This document discusses the political will needed among African leaders to protect civilians. It notes that while the African Union has committed to intervening in humanitarian crises, leaders like Mugabe are skeptical of concepts like R2P. The document analyzes challenges in generating political will, like in Darfur where the AU struggled despite commitments. Ultimately, consistent action is needed to judge if leaders will fulfill responsibilities to protect civilians when crises occur.
Indigenous and transnational terrorism pose threats to security across Asia. Factors like poor governance, corruption, ethnic and religious divisions have led to movements like Maoism in India and Balochi persecution in Pakistan. Additionally, some states support terror groups in other countries as instruments of policy, like Pakistan's support of groups in Kashmir and Afghanistan. Across Southeast, South, and Central Asia, diverse ethnicities, insurgencies, organized crime, and porous borders challenge stability and security. Terrorist groups have used conflict areas as safe havens. Secessionist movements also undermine stability, like in Kashmir and Sri Lanka. The Afghanistan-Pakistan region remains unstable, impacting the whole region. Central Asia faces external pressures
Identifying Women’s Peace and Security PrioritiesDr Lendy Spires
Identify important peace and security entry points. It is important for women to agree on the specific upcoming events or processes in which they wish to be involved. The following are typical peace and security processes that often lack opportunities for women’s engagement and as a result, often fail adequately to reflect women’s concerns:
»» Humanitarian interventions, which include delivery of urgently needed relief and are often supported by significant fund-raising drives to generate resources to address urgent recovery needs;
»» Ceasefires or pre-ceasefires, including confidence-building measures and humanitarian access agreements;
»» Peace negotiations, whether they are about to start or ongoing;
»» A post-conflict needs assessment or other planning process, which identifies priorities for public investment and focuses on a wide range of issues, such as infrastructure recovery, creation of economic opportunities, health and education rehabilitation, justice and security sector reform, and basic rehabilitation of governance infrastructure and processes;
»» Donor conferences, in which the plans identified through needs-assessment processes are financed;
»» Production of an Integrated Strategic Framework for ensuring coherence between national priorities and international support, including grounding international peacekeeping missions in the national context. These can be supported by the UN’s Integrated Mission Planning and by the Peacebuilding Commission.4 These frameworks will be supported by multi-donor trust funds or by the Peacebuilding Fund.5
»» Establishment or draw-down of an international peacekeeping or political mission;
»» Production of a Poverty Reduction Strategy; and
»» Production of a National Action Plan on 1325 to bring issues of women, peace and security into national defence, justice, interior and gender planning. Any of these events or processes offer women a useful entry point for engaging as a collectivity.
Women can request inclusion, consultation and/or representation. They can make substantive suggestions about issues they want to see on the agenda, or they can make concrete proposals for monitoring these processes. Focus on peace and security.
This document discusses the concept of human security and proposes adopting a new paradigm that focuses on protecting people rather than states. It argues that while states remain important for security, they sometimes fail to protect citizens or become threats themselves. The document proposes that human security complements state security by seeking to protect individuals from a wide range of threats and empowering people to act on their own behalf. It also notes that in today's interconnected world, threats can spread rapidly so security policies must have a stronger, more integrated global response.
Terrorism in International Law: The struggle to define terrorismAnthony Veluz
International Criminal Justice.
In our ICJ module we are required to do a presentation in each seminar on the week's topic area. Our presentation would usually consist of one of:
- literature review
- case review
- current issues
For our final seminar we had to give a presentation on one of the following topics:
- aggression
- terrorism
- torture
My presentation was on terrorism and I mainly looked at the literature on this area, with the odd case and current issues included. My primary focus was on the definition of terrorism as I couldn't find a universally accepted definition and looked at the problems this caused. The battle against terrorism is difficult enough, hampered by the absence of a definition. I examine the reasons as to why there isn't a definition, the difficulties in establishing one, the effect of establishing one, and therefore answering the question whether a definition of terrorism is actually needed.
This document discusses the concept of human security. It provides background on how human security became part of international discourse in 1994. It then outlines three conceptions of human security and debates around defining and applying the concept. Key risks to human security are also examined, such as state failure, organized violence, relative poverty, and threats from pandemics, environmental degradation, and terrorism.
The document discusses the concept of human security as an alternative to traditional notions of state security. It defines human security as protecting individuals from threats like poverty, disease, and human rights abuses rather than just protecting a state from military aggression. It explains that human security encompasses economic, food, health, environmental, and personal dimensions. It also argues that human security is best achieved by improving conditions at the local level and promoting development.
Migration has become a major world problem in the light of internalised civil conflicts. The presentation explores how the migration issue is constructed into security threat by states
Security challenges as threats to national unity in nigeriaAlexander Decker
This document discusses security challenges threatening national unity in Nigeria. It examines the causes of security challenges, including a failing state as evidenced by inability to ensure national security and food/social security, bad governance including corruption, duplicated/inefficient security agency functions and inadequate training/equipment, and religious ideologies that divide people. The document aims to enhance national unity by suggesting ways to prevent security challenges that endanger Nigeria's heterogeneous state and development.
This document provides an overview of the concept of human security. It emerged after the Cold War as a way to ensure freedom from want, fear and to live with dignity for all people in order to tackle global insecurity. The 1994 UN Development Report was groundbreaking in establishing seven components of human security: economic, food, health, environmental, personal, community and political security. It advocates for a people-centered approach that identifies and addresses the root causes of threats to human survival, livelihood and dignity through both top-down policy frameworks and bottom-up empowerment of individuals. Examples are given of issues human security aims to address.
Unity, Betrayal and Failed States in Modern TimesDr. Dan EKONGWE
The politics of identity and wars of fragmentation of states stern from broken promises by political leaders and state authorities to respect the convenants reached by founding fathers of most modern states thereby leading to increasing ethno/cultural nationalism and wars of identity. We have seen these across the literature from former Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, Rwanda, Sudan, Cameroon, Togo, Ghana, Central African Republic, Zimbabwe, Nigeria and Ivory Coast.. The application of the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) in its pre UN non approval in Europe to the post application by UN in Lybia has given us the reason to believe that sustainable peace in each state must respect the foundation doctrine of which each country was created, else Africa in particular will continue to witnessed endless wars in age when drone technology and assymetric warfare has gained currency.

Human Security Implications of Climate ChangeRolph Payet
The document discusses whether climate change is best framed as a development or human security issue. It notes that climate change can result in loss of infrastructure, livelihoods, and territory for some nations. This may challenge concepts of sovereignty and could shift borders or cause entire territories to be lost. It presents examples of small island nations and populations that are highly vulnerable to sea level rise and natural disasters. The human costs of climate change are generally greatest for less developed and small island countries.
Insecurity a threat to human existence and economic development in nigeriaAlexander Decker
This document examines the causes and effects of insecurity in Nigeria. It discusses how insecurity has become a major problem that threatens human existence and economic development. Some of the key causes identified include political factors like the power shift from northern to southern rule, as well as unemployment, jobs racketeering, and poor leadership. Insecurity has led to bombings, killings, kidnappings and destruction of property. It has also negatively impacted people's well-being and the economy through business disruptions and relocations. The study recommends allowing dialogue between ethnic and minority groups to find more peaceful solutions to insecurity in Nigeria.
This article briefly discusses on the concept of human security, its dimensions and challenges. The concept of human security is the paradigm shift from state-centered traditional notion of security to individual-centered idea focusing on protection, dignity and sustainable development. In brief it freedom from fear, freedom from want and beyond.
South Asia faces significant challenges from terrorism. The region is home to over 1.5 billion people and has a history of conflict and disputes between countries. It also has two nuclear powers in India and Pakistan and is strategically important given its location between Central Asia, the Middle East and Southeast Asia. However, it also struggles with poverty, weak governance, and militant groups operating in countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan, India and Bangladesh. Addressing the social and economic factors that contribute to radicalization will be important to reducing the threat of terrorism in South Asia.
This document lists various types of personal protective equipment and safety products including: full brim helmets, safety goggles, ear plugs, respirator masks, coveralls, gloves, spill containment products, anti-slip tapes, lockout equipment, safety tools, storage cabinets, and fall protection harnesses. A wide range of protective gear is outlined for head, eye, face, ear, respiratory, body, hand, and foot protection as well as products for spill response, facility safety identification, tool safety, storage, and first aid.
On 28 November 2011, NGO Delegate for Europe, Mat Southwell, presented an overview of the 2011 NGO Report at a UNAIDS Member States meeting in Geneva ahead of the Programme Coordinating Board gathering from 13-15 December 2011. After the presentation, States had the opportunity to ask questions and discuss its findings.
The NGO Report focuses on the experiences of people in different policy and legal environments and how those affect local HIV responses. You can read the full report in seven languages at http://unaidspcbngo.org/?page_id=15047.

Conflict prevention is difficult to define, measure, and conduct, but nonetheless it is critical in the
pursuit of certain strategic goals. Furthermore, given the breadth of expertise needed and the
complexity of issues involved, engagement in conflict prevention operations should be undertaken
within a multiagency framework. This paper presents the case for two concurrent approaches:
promoting recognition of conflict prevention as a foreign policy imperative, and expanding effective
multiagency collaboration initiatives for conflict prevention.
Security professionals must be aware of numerous attack vectors and threats that face their networks. All too often, some devices are forgotten or ignored. Printers are a staple of a corporate environment, and are frequently among the least secure elements of any network. Tom will explore the vulnerabilities associated with networked printers, potential attacks that can be leveraged using these devices, and solutions for mitigating and managing these threats. Presented by Tom Kopchak, Senior Engineer at Hurricane Labs.

The document outlines the proposed peace arrangements for South Sudan, including:
- Power sharing ratios for the transitional national government between the GRSS, SPLM-IO, SPLM-FD, and other political parties.
- The structure of the transitional government including the president, first vice president, and executive, legislative and judiciary organs.
- Processes for security sector reform including a permanent ceasefire, demilitarization of areas, and building a national army over an 18 month period.
- Mechanisms for justice and reconciliation like a hybrid court and truth and reconciliation commission.
This document provides an introduction to key concepts related to conflict, violence and resilience. It defines conflict and conflict prevention, noting that conflict prevention aims to address both direct violence and underlying structural and cultural drivers of conflict. The document discusses different types of violence, and how conflict can undermine resilience by increasing vulnerability to other shocks. It argues that genuinely building resilience in conflict-affected areas requires integrating conflict prevention into programming to address the vulnerabilities caused by conflict and the underlying factors that perpetuate tensions.
The document discusses glass safety in the workplace. It recommends using personal protective equipment like gloves, gauntlets, safety glasses, and ear plugs to minimize injuries from handling glass. Gloves and gauntlets protect hands and forearms from cuts, safety glasses protect eyes from glass explosions or debris, and ear plugs reduce noise exposure. When handling glass, workers should wear gloves, pull glass slowly from casings, firmly grasp both sides, bend at the knees to lift, and gently place glass down to avoid common injuries like cuts, lacerations, and back strain.

Peace and Conflict Resolution/Prevention: More than Just Scholarships Rotary International
Since the launch of Future Vision and the six areas
of focus the majority of global grants for peace and
conflict prevention/resolution (PCPR) have been for
scholarships. In an effort to expand the global grant
activity in PCPR, an idea exchange and workshop will
provide Rotarians an opportunity to brainstorm ideas
for projects they can do with their clubs and districts.
Rotarian Action Group for Peace members and Rotary
Peace Fellow alumni will facilitate the group activities.
The document outlines an operational plan for launching an internet-based NGO. It includes establishing a mission statement focused on education, finance, hope, and love. An analysis of the internal and external environment is conducted. 16 teams are formed around key functions like human resources, strategy, project management, IT, and operations. Guidelines are proposed for communication between teams, decision making, and feedback mechanisms to evaluate performance. The overall goal is to help smaller NGOs and communities improve their capacity and reduce inefficiencies through consulting services, networking, and innovative tools.

The document outlines various types of PPE including gowns, masks, respirators, goggles, gloves, and shoe covers. It provides guidance on properly donning and removing PPE to prevent the spread of infection. Maintaining good hand hygiene and properly disposing of used PPE are emphasized.
The key points of the document are:
1) Physical security assessments are important to identify security risks, vulnerabilities, and opportunities to improve protection of assets, employees, and business reputation.
2) Assessments should evaluate physical, cyber, and human aspects of security using a risk management framework.
3) Effective security requires identifying assets, threats, and vulnerabilities; prioritizing risks; and implementing programs to deter threats and mitigate vulnerabilities.
The document provides information on the Krityanand UNESCO Club (KNUC) NGO. It was founded in 1992 in Jamshedpur, India by Mukesh Kumar Mishra.

Conflict And Postconflict ReconstructionMONIKA WROZ
The document discusses several perspectives on conflict, post-conflict reconstruction, and humanitarian aid. It addresses the integrated perspectives approach which looks at issues through human rights, social development, ecological, and global lenses. The document also examines the nature of modern conflicts, the role of the UN and global civil society in conflict areas, and outlines a comprehensive post-conflict agenda that includes immediate humanitarian needs as well as long-term peacebuilding goals.
Unarmed civilian protection (UCP) is the only practice that meets Rotary requirements for sustainability and fits with the the United Nations’ guidelines for world peacebuilding.

The document discusses the concept of human security. It defines human security as protecting individuals rather than states from threats, and focuses on protection, provision, and empowerment. The UNDP's 1994 Human Development Report originated the concept and defined seven areas of human security: economic, food, health, environmental, personal, community, and political security. There are two schools of thought on human security - freedom from want, which takes a holistic development approach, and freedom from fear, which focuses on protecting individuals from violence. The document also discusses critiques of human security, promoting human security through organizations and policies, and the relationship between human security and gender.
The document discusses the human security approach and its evolution from focusing on poverty and human insecurity. It highlights several key aspects of the human security approach including its continued focus on deprivations and downside risks, emphasis on conflicts, need for democracy and empowerment, and integrated framework for action. It also discusses how human security relates to concepts like human development, state security, human rights, and its international dimensions.

This is a presentation about understanding the nature of conflicts and events that precede violent eruptions. Violent conflict manifestations are a result of political, economic and social issues that interplay. It is therefore essential to keep a close watch on these dynamics and how they could end up in violent expressions.

As outlined in the course lesson, the United Nations (UN) has played an active role in protecting and serving the global community in a variety of areas that include maintaining international peace and security, protecting human rights, delivering humanitarian aid, promoting sustainable development, and upholding international laws. In this discussion, you will consider the role of humanitarian aid.
The UN is well-known for providing humanitarian aid such as food, water, medical supplies, personnel, resources, and necessities after disasters, such as terrorist attacks, that occur in war-torn areas of the globe. Do you believe that the humanitarian aid provided by the UN is enough? Do you believe that other NATO nations should be required to provide humanitarian aid after a terrorist attack? Why, or why not?
ANSWER THE ABOVE QUESTION AND THEN REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTION AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 150 WORDS EACH)
CLASSMATE’S POST
This is an interesting question. The United Nations is, indeed, well-known for their humanitarian efforts around the globe. According to the United Nations website (n.d.), “The Organization is now relied upon by the international community to coordinate humanitarian relief of emergencies due to natural and man-made disasters in areas beyond the relief capacity of national authorities alone.” However, what one has to consider is
what is
enough
?
The mission of the United Nations is, indeed, a good one. It brings together nations from across the globe to help each other in the areas descried in the Professor’s post. In assessing
is it enough,
one has to think about the obstacles that occur in the provision of humanitarian aid. In third-world countries, the aid doesn’t always reach the intended target. In war-torn countries, there are often attacks on those trying to simply deliver humanitarian aid to those in need. “Tragically…the growing threat of violence against aid workers is putting humanitarian efforts at risk” (Warren, 2020). One would think that someone trying to aid other men, women, and children would not be at risk but, unfortunately, that is simply not true. Patricia McIlreavy, Vice President of Humanitarian Policy and Practice at InterAction, as cited in Warren (2020) states: “Aid workers are under attack. We are bleeding from a thousand small cuts. We are being robbed, raped, and murdered in Afghanistan, South Sudan, Yemen, Syria, and countless other places.” Therefore, the question lingers of how to effectively deliver humanitarian aid to all countries in need when it is so very difficult in some places. Van Brabant, as cited in Childs (2013), states “Acceptance, in the sense of a risk management strategy, is the reduction of the likelihood of targeted attacks by reducing or removing the motivation to attack.” In response to this quote, Childs (2013) states “Aid agencies have depended upon an appre ...
The document discusses opportunities and challenges related to civil-military cooperation in Sri Lanka. It provides background on the conflict in Sri Lanka and overview of the LTTE. It emphasizes the importance of a holistic and long-term approach to building peace that addresses root causes, rather than just symptoms. It also discusses perceptions each side has of the other and guidelines for civil-military relations according to the IASC, including maintaining separation of roles and seeking military assistance only as a last resort.
Peace and security are fundamental human needs that are closely tied to development goals like prosperity, inclusion, and human rights. However, achieving peace and security is challenging as threats like armed conflicts, terrorism, and human rights abuses endanger lives and stability. The document outlines some of the main contemporary threats to peace and security, including ongoing armed conflicts, terrorism, and their severe human and economic costs. It also discusses strategies for preventing disputes from escalating, such as preventive diplomacy, disarmament, and early warning systems to enable timely action from the UN Security Council.
Peace and security are fundamental human needs and aspirations. They are essential for the well-being of individuals, communities, and nations. They are closely interconnected with other pillars of human development, such as economic prosperity, social inclusion, and respect for human rights.
However, achieving peace and security is a complex and challenging task. Throughout history, humankind has faced numerous threats to peace and security, including armed conflicts, terrorism, organized crime, and human rights abuses.

OUR SHARED VULNERABILITY
As K A New York investment banker who walks past Ground Zero
every day on her way to work what today's biggest threat is. Then ask
an illiterate 12-year-old orphan in Malawi who lost his parents to
AIDS. You Will get two very different answers. Invite an Indonesian
fisherman mourning the loss of his entire family and the destruction
of his village from the recent, devastating tsunami to tell you what he
fears most. Then ask a villager in Darfiur, stalked by murderous militias
and fearftil of bombing raids. Their answers, too, are likely to diverge.
Different perceptions of what is a threat are often the biggest
obstacles to international cooperation. But I believe that in the twenty
first century they should not be allowed to lead the world's governments
to pursue very different priorities or to work at cross-purposes. Today's
threats are deeply interconnected, and they feed off of one another. The
misery of people caught in unresolved civil conflicts or of populations
mired in extreme poverty, for example, may increase their attraction
to terrorism. The mass rape of women that occurs too often in today's
conflicts makes the spread of HIV and AIDS all the more likely.
In fact, all of us are vulnerable to what we think of as dangers that
threaten only other people. Millions more of sub-Saharan Africa's
inhabitants would plunge below the poverty line if a nuclear terrorist
attack against a financial center in the United States caused a massive
downturn in the global economy. By the same token, millions ofAmer
icans could quickly become infected if, naturally or through malicious

Human Rights Defenders Under Threat: A Shrinking Space For Civil SocietyAmnesty India
When the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was drafted after the atrocities of World War II, 70
years ago, the atmosphere was very different from today. Then, there was a spirit of solidarity with and
support for the principles of freedom, justice and peace for all the members of the human family,1 which
underpinned the UDHR. In today’s world these principles are being eroded.
Human rights defenders face personal attacks such as killings, enforced disappearances, persecution through prosecution, stigmatization, trolling, and reprisals for their work defending human rights. In 2016 alone, 281 human rights defenders were killed according to one NGO, with over half of those killings occurring in the Americas and targeting those working on land, environmental, and indigenous rights. Perpetrators of attacks on human rights defenders often enjoy impunity, failing to be prosecuted and instead emboldening further threats and violence. Families seeking justice for killings also face dangers, with many cases remaining unresolved and the truth unknown about the deaths of defenders.

22. The Basics of Unarmed Civilian Protection What it is and Why it Works
25. UCP is… Not disorganised individuals showing up without a plan, thinking only their presence is enough. Organised teams strategically implementing proven tactics for protecting civilians and reducing violence. Not well-intentioned volunteers working against “oppressors” and naively sticking flowers in gun barrels. Well-trained professionals working proactively with key stakeholders on all levels to increase security of all people Not white people from the global North holding threatened peoples’ hands so they do not get shot. Security-conscious international/multi-cultural teams working and living within communities affected by violence and supporting them to increase their own security. Not an add-on to an already over-burdened work day or something done indirectly while passing out food. A specific, focused activity, based on lessons learned and compelling practices
26. Unarmed Civilian Protection PROACTIVE PRESENCE Encouragement Deterrence Influence Nonviolence Independence Primacy of Internal Conflict Actors Nonpartisanship Human Rights Confidence Building Conscious Visibility Protection Capacity Building Multi-Level Diplomacy
27.
28. 1. Understand that UCP’s are partial: (e.g. towards human rights, security of all people, peaceful resolution of conflicts, etc.). Cannot be afraid of the values and mission underlying the work. 2. Separate violent actions committed from the people who commit those actions (problems vs. people). 3. Work transparently (key stakeholders know what we are doing) while maintaining the confidentiality of those we serve. 4. Strive for ACCEPTANCE and strategic connection from all key stakeholders. 5. Adhere to the 3rd Principle of UCP: Primacy of Internal Conflict Actors (i.e. It’s not about what we want, it’s our job to create the space for internal actors to achieve what they want.) Lesson Learned from Implementing Nonpartisanship in the Field
29. What is Proactive Presence? “ What is needed…is not passive presence for its own sake, but well informed and carefully analysed strategies and tactics that use the presence of each [UCP] to influence all the actors around them.” -Liam Mahoney
