Descripción del proyecto
UN peacekeeping operations constitute a complex endeavor to prevent conflict and protect civilians, which often can only be achieved through close collaboration of different nations, functions and services, both military and civilian. Although interoperability is crucial for the success of integrated missions, no previous study has systematically examined differences in models of interoperability along national lines; furthermore, until now, the taxonomy of knowledge requirements for effective interoperability remains disorganized and undertheorized in scholarly literature. Previous experiences in missions have demonstrated that military peacekeepers, even when operating under the same mandate, may have different understandings of the abilities and skills required to interact with other contingents and services in missions. This project sheds light on such unexplored issues. Through case studies and comparative research, it aims to identify and assess how knowledge management across different national peacekeeping organizations affects variations in models of practices of interoperability in peace operations. As case studies, I have selected four national peacekeeping training organizations located in different nations and regions: India, Brazil, Netherlands and Ethiopia. Given the project's focus on the field of peace and conflict studies, it adopts a strong interdisciplinary approach. To ensure the successful development of the purpose of this project, I will conduct my research at the Netherlands Defense Academy, under the guidance of Professor Dr. René Moelker, a leading scholar in the field. This project will prepare me to become a tenured scholar, refine my research skills, strengthen my scholar profile, and enable me to establish myself as an experienced researcher.
