تم تحديد تحسين قدرات القوات المشاركة في عمليات حفظ السلام باعتباره أحد المجالات الحاسمة التي يجب أن تعمل عليها الأمم المتحدة والدول الأعضاء. وقد تم إبراز ذلك في تقرير دوس سانتوس كروز المعنون "تحسين أمن قوات حفظ السلام التابعة للأمم المتحدة"؛ قرار مجلس الأمن رقم 2436 (2018) مبادرة "العمل من أجل حفظ السلام"؛ ومن قبل الأمين العام (S/2017/1079): "تتطلب العمليات الأكثر تعقيدًا والخطيرة في بعض الأحيان اتصالات معززة، وإدراكًا للأوضاع، وقابلية التشغيل البيني بين الوحدات وقوات حماية. ومع ذلك، هناك نقص في القدرات المتخصصة وعالية الأداء لعمليات الأمم المتحدة لحفظ السلام ".
بدعم من شركائنا الذين يقدمون الخبرة التدريبية والتوجيه والمدربين والمعدات والتمويل الإضافي والموارد الأخرى، تواصل أكاديمية الأمم المتحدة (C4ISR) لعمليات السلام (UNCAP) اتخاذ خطوات واسعة في بناء قدرات عالية الأداء في الأرض في مجالات تخصص (C4ISR) وتكنولوجيا أمن المعسكرات.
تمثل (UNCAP) التزامًا قويًا من جانب البلدان المساهمة بالجيش والشرطة (TCCs/PCCs) بالإضافة إلى دعم الدول الأعضاء والأمانة العامة للأمم المتحدة. وهم يشكلون معًا "شراكة ثلاثية" حيث يشترك كل أصحاب المصلحة بالتساوي في مسؤولية تحقيق أهداف البرنامج وغاياته. هذا المفهوم هو نتيجة مباشرة لقمة الأمم المتحدة لحفظ السلام لعام 2014. كما أنه يتماشى مع توصيات الهيئة المستقلة رفيعة المستوى المعنية بعمليات الأمم المتحدة للسلام (HIPPO) لعام 2015 كنهج مبتكر لتعبئة القدرات غير المشكّلة المعدة جيدًا والمجهزة.
Opportunities to Support UN Peacekeeping
The UN does not operate alone in any environment, and its success is often determined by the generosity of its supporters and its ability to maximize the impact of their contributions.
UNCAP provides many opportunities to support its work and programme objectives:
- Classroom-based courses at the Academy hub in Entebbe, Uganda, close to the epicentre of peacekeeping;
- Mobile training teams deployed in missions or at the TCC/PCC level;
- E-learning through self-paced courses;
- Virtual Instructor-Led Technology (VILT) through real-time, instructor-led remote learning.

Testimonials:
NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) | August 2024
"NATO-UN Defence Capacity Building has been an inherently positive partnership experience. It has shown that organizations can partner with NATO without fear of imposition and with mutual benefit. NATO is immensely proud of the collaboration between NATO Communications and Information Agency (NCIA) and the UN C4ISR Academy for Peace Operations (UNCAP). NCIA and UNCAP delivered the Virtual Instructor-led Training Capability, a flagship capability empowering the UN to deliver training to peacekeepers. The UNCAP hub in UN Regional Service Centre-Entebbe is a dynamic training entity and NATO looks forward to supporting its evolution."
Government of CANADA | April 2021
"Canada is a proud donor of the UN C4ISR Academy for Peace Operations (UNCAP) and appreciates its contribution to reducing critical training gaps, building partnerships, protecting peacekeepers, and supporting the Elsie Initiative for Women in Peace Operations by providing courses for female peacekeepers. Today’s peacekeeping missions operate in increasingly complex environments that require peacekeepers to have better situational awareness in order to carry out their mandates and protect themselves. Technology can serve to increase a mission’s command, control and situational awareness capabilities, and Canada welcomes UNCAP’s ability to provide this type of specialized training to peacekeepers, to better prepare them for the environments they face. Canada is also proud to support UNCAP’s commitment to working towards offering their full suite of courses in both English and French."
Government of DENMARK | October 2020
"Deployed in remote and high-risk locations, UN peacekeeping operations require specialized and high-performing signals and ICT capabilities as the backbone of command, control and situational awareness. In this regard, Denmark is a committed donor and commends the tremendous work of UN C4ISR Academy for Peace Operations and the standardized and gender-inclusive training. The curricula addresses the gaps in peacekeeper signals, information, and communications technology (ICT) capabilities; and contributes to the A4P gender objective through dedicated training of uniformed female Signals and ICT officers."
Government of JAPAN | October 2020
"Japan appreciates the critical contribution of the UN C4ISR Academy for Peace Operations to enhance C4ISR capabilities of peacekeeping missions, which are essential for better performance and safety and security of peacekeepers. The Academy has also served as an important vehicle to promote full and meaningful participation of Women in Peacekeeping through its Women’s Outreach Courses. UN C4ISR Academy for Peace Operations illustrates the effectiveness of the Triangular Partnership model in the area of training and capacity building, and Japan wishes the further expansion of this successful partnership."
