Purpose
This project aims to support Zambia’s efforts in establishing a Formed Police Unit (FPU) to further strengthen the country’s contributions to United Nations (UN) Peace Operations, and increase the security of communities that are served by them. The majority of police officers serving in UN Peace Operations are deployed as part of an FPU, trained and equipped to act as a cohesive unit capable of accomplishing policing tasks that individual police officers cannot address. In order to successfully establish a deployable FPU in Zambia, there is a need to increase knowledge and awareness among decision-makers in Zambian government institutions on the necessary requirements, as well as explore strategies to strengthen the number of women police officers successfully integrated. The project includes the execution of a high-level meeting with key national stakeholders in Zambia and various subject matter experts to share information and develop effective strategies for the establishment of an FPU in Zambia.
