AMISOM officers complete training on human rights, gender and protection of civilians
Mogadishu, 16 July 2020—Senior military and police officers of the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) on Wednesday completed a two-day virtual training course on human rights and gender, and the protection of civilians in peace support operations.
The training, the second since the inception of the Covid-19-imposed restriction, is to ensure continuity in the implementation of the mission’s mandate, despite disruptions brought about by the global Covid-19 pandemic.
Speaking at the opening, the Special Representative of the Chairperson of the African Union Commission (SRCC) for Somalia, Ambassador Francisco Madeira, noted that it is imperative that the mission continues delivering on its mandate, despite the global virus by embracing technology.
“The mission finds itself in a situation where it has to protect its personnel from Covid-19, while at the same time it has to discharge its mandate ensuring its troops don’t run foul of applicable international laws. The possibility of using technology like Zoom, Webex and other platforms has come to our rescue,” Ambassador Madeira, who is also the Head of Mission said on Tuesday.
