Each year the Spanish non-governmental organization Helsinki España conducts at least two month-long workshops on Rapid Coordination and Assistance for Conflict Prevention Operations, Crisis Management and Post-Conflict Rehabilitation. The workshops are designed to prepare participants from countries all over the world for work in field missions of international organizations. They dovetail with UN and OSCE training programs, and are part of the UN-accredited system of international peace-support operations training (UNITAR). USIP’s Professional Training Program has been participating as a content-deliverer for several years. During the week of October 30 to November 4, Program Officer Jonathan Morgenstein conducted a workshop on post-conflict negotiation and mediation skills. He also focused on the relationship between military and civilians in post-conflict zones. Later he gave instruction on modern issues of conflict in Africa, focusing specifically on Darfur, Rwanda, and Sierra Leone.
