NATO Secretary General opened a conference celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Partnership for Peace (PfP) Consortium of Defense Academies and Security Studies Institutes on 18 June 2008.
The PfP Consortium was established in 1998 to help promote education in topics related to security. It does this by facilitating cooperation between both civilian and military institutions in NATO and Partnership for Peace countries. Participating organizations include universities, research institutions and training centres, both military and civilians.
The Consortium operates by establishing working groups that bring together experts, policy-makers, and defence and security practitioners to pool information and develop products (such as educational tools or scholarly publications).
The PfP Consortium’s “focus on education and training promotes the mental transformation that must underpin any lasting security order,” saidNATO Secretary General, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer. “It has become the flagship of DefenceInstitutionBuilding and plays a major role in security sector reform.”
Also speaking was the U.S. Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Partnership Strategy, Mr. Gregory Gross, who underlined the need for the Alliance to focus on partners’ capacity building “outside and beyond the Euro-Atlantic region”. To the Consortium, he issued the challenge “not to rest on past achievements”, but to continue evolving as the world changes.
