The course provides participants with the space to reflect on and develop their leadership skills together with peers and facilitators. It follows the idea that a guided journey, linking personal values, personality and experience with one‘s leadership skills, is the best way to improve and eventually ‘master’ leadership.

Taking stock of the last 20 years, the course reviews and discusses the experiences and lessons learned from the application of gender-sensitive approaches in the context of EU, UN, OSCE and other peace operations. This course allows participants to reflect on and further develop the tools and skills they need to work in the area of gender, peace and security.
