    Description

    Support to military and security capacity development (MSCD) is growing into a more integrated part of the repertoire of regional and international military engagement. The European Union, the United Nations, NATO, and the African Union are all currently planning to strengthen existing capabilities or to develop new capabilities to support MSCD. Similarly, the Nordic and the Baltic countries consider how to best strengthen their bilateral and joint engagements in, and capabilities for, MSCD. They are presently working towards identifying concrete MSCD capacities to offer to the UN, EU, NATO, AU and and/or partner countries.This conference aimed at producing a set of practical recommendations for the future strategic development of Nordic-Baltic capabilities and partnerships in support to MSCD.
