Tigray on Nov 4, 2020, the Ethiopian gov't, along with its allies, Eritrean forces & Amhara special forces and militias; they have ushered in the worst humanitarian catastrophe in the world. What about the people of Tigray? #ProtectionOfCivilians #TigrayGenocide
Start of the 22nd (enhanced) Comprehensive #ProtectionOfCivilians Course. Students and tutors come from Benin, Burkina Faso, Senegal and Thailand, plus interns and assistants from SIOI UNA ITALY, SantAnnaPisa, Campus Ciels, and Università degli Studi di Cagliari, in the context of #CoESPU internship projects.
Under a different name but w/ the same perspective, i.e., the #ProtectionOfCivilians & upholding #HumanRights , #StabilityPolicing is crucial in United Nations, NATO Ops & beyond. Today’s meeting w/ Ann-Marie Orler will surely pave the way for mutual spt & enhanced cooperation.
