Abstract

Lessons learned from analysis of modern conflicts and post-conflict lessons have revealed the acute need to review the current training programmes in order to adopt them to modern challenges in the field of peacekeeping. Multidimensional operations run under the auspices of the UN or NATO are not aimed at purely military gain anymore, but follow the comprehensive approach in dealing with conflict and post-conflict societies. A complex emergency environment sets a range of tasks for the modern peacekeeper, focusing more and more on dealing with humanitarian issues. Gender awareness is one of the newest and most challenging questions, both during the pre-deployment training of a future peacekeeper and the aftermath during his or her performance in the mission area. Thus, raising this awareness in pre-deployment training will increase the overall efficiency of the personnel during their tour of duty. This paper deals with the ways of implementing gender training into already set pre-deployment training programmes and shows the strategies for integrating it into the lectures without disrupting the overall training methodology.
