Southeast Asia Peace Operations
Seminar-Game The Government of Indonesia, US Pacific Command, the Center of Excellence in Disaster Management and Humanitarian Assistance and the United Nations Department of Peace Keeping Operations are jointly sponsoring a five-day seminar-game 8 - 12 April 2002 at the Hotel Borobudur in Jakarta, Indonesia. The purpose of the seminar-game is to further develop multilateral, multifunctional, operational-level peace operations skills, and through tactical-level vignettes, gain insights into capacity-building and training requirements in the Asia Pacific Region. This seminar-game follows closely on a similar event held last month in Kathmandu, Nepal. Both events are part of the Asia Pacific Peace Operations Capacity Building Program, an ongoing joint effort between host countries in the Asia Pacific Region, the United Nations Department of Peacekeeping and US Pacific Command designed to enhance the region's capability and capacity to participate in UN mandated peace operations. The program is administered by the Center of Excellence. For the Jakarta event, invitations have been made to 29 countries, including Australia, Bangladesh, Brunei, Canada, Fiji, France, Great Britain, India, Indonesia, Japan, Republic of Korea, Madagascar, Malaysia, Maldives, Mauritius, Mongolia, Nepal, New Zealand, Pakistan, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Russia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tonga, United States, Vanuatu and Vietnam. For countries in the Southeast Asia region, representation is invited from the humanitarian, civilian, civilian police and military communities, all critical sectors to the execution of a successful, integrated peace operation. The goals of the seminar-game are to:
Participants will address a fictional, but realistically complicated UN-mandated peace operation scenario. The table-top game is divided into three "moves". For the first two moves, working groups will brief the Special Representative to the Secretary General and senior mission leadership, role played by seasoned professionals with real-world mission experience, on their concepts of operation and plans of action. The final move focuses on the training needed to properly conduct the simulated mission, with focus on training needs for Southeast Asia nations who would participate in a UN mission.
