Challenges in Peacekeeping: Past, Present and Future
October 2002
Executive Summary
The International Peace Academy (IPA) and the Best Practices Unit of the United Nations Department of Peacekeeping Operations (UNDPKO) organized a half-day seminar on October 29, 2002, with the generous support of the Government of Norway, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of UNDPKO. Entitled "Past, Present and Future Challenges in Peacekeeping," the seminar reunited current and previous Under-Secretaries-General and several highly reputed Special Representatives of the Secretary-General (SRSGs) in a review of the last ten years in UN peacekeeping history.
This event brought together more than 170 participants from the UN Secretariat and Permanent Missions to the UN, as well as representatives of the academic world, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and the media, to examine the lessons learned during a decade of 'second generation' peacekeeping and UN management of complex crises.
