Ms Terhi Lehtinen, member of the EU’s Military Staff (EUMS) said “there is a new momentum to integrate a gender perspective in capacity building and as a means to improve operational effectiveness in military operations.”
Speaking for the Military Co-operation Division within the SHAPE Partnership Diectorate (SHAPE-PD), Ms Paola Pasini said NATO is inviting colleagues to make sure their institutions guarantee “a team of experts to protect equity and respect.” Currently SHAPE offers 15 courses for partner nations in regards to training on the gender perspective.
