Overview
The website provides official information on the activities of the leaders of the peacekeepers that are relevant to the United Nations' peacekeeping missions. Training activities, foreign affairs events and international co-operation activities will be featured.
The new website is a helpful tool in serving the UN’s missions, especially with respect to the promotion of peacekeeping's activities, sharing experiences, and attracting human resources.
In the digital age where the majority of communications and information sharing is performed online, a website for the UN Peacekeeping is “of inevitable importance,”.
The target audience are army/military officers, foreign partners, UN peacekeepers and the public who are interested in peacekeeping affairs.
