The workshop was part of the Challenges Forum’s work strand on Future Concepts and Models of Peace Operations and focused on four key issues: a) effective coordination between the UN and regional actors (with a primary focus on operational/support issues) b) authority, command and control; c) new threats and actors (e.g.: transnational organized crime, terrorism, etc.); and d) the role of modern technology and new media.
