APSTA collaboration with the African Union: African Standby Force Training Support and Coordination Workshop
APSTA will be hosting an ASF Training Support and Coordination Workshop in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia in April 2007. The workshop emanates from a request from the Head of the AU PSOD, Mr Bereng Mtimkulu, during the 5th APSTA AGM in Accra in August 2006.
Building upon the outcomes from the AU PSO workshops conducted during September and November 2006 in Pretoria and Gaborone, the workshop will consider the way forward on such issues as:
- Coordination and harmonization of ASF capacity building and training.
- ASF training needs analysis.
- Curriculum development.
- Training standards, evaluation, accreditation & recognition
- ASF training database.
The workshop is expected to be attended by representatives of the RECs/Regions, the UN, the AU, civil society organisations and international partners, as well as the Patron, President and Member institutions of the APSTA.
