UAE Ministry of Interior advances international peacekeeping cooperation with Latin American training initiative
A specialised course in Buenos Aires equips peacekeepers from seven nations with advanced skills in conflict resolution and operational readiness, reflecting the UAE's commitment to global security partnerships.
In the Argentine capital, the Ministry of Interior is conducting a comprehensive training programme designed to strengthen the capabilities of peacekeeping personnel from across Latin America. Running through October 2026, the course brings together thirty participants from seven nations, offering them instruction in the complexities of United Nations peacekeeping missions and the nuanced challenges that such operations present.
Led by Colonel Saeed Alham Al Dhaheri, Police Attaché at the UAE Permanent Mission to the United Nations in New York, and First Lieutenant Rashid Al Neyadi, the programme reflects a carefully considered curriculum addressing the multifaceted nature of contemporary peacekeeping work. The instruction encompasses specialised training methodologies specific to peacekeeping forces, an examination of crowd dynamics and human behaviour in volatile settings, and practical techniques for managing large groups under challenging circumstances.
The initiative represents a significant dimension of the Ministry of Interior’s broader strategy to deepen ties with international partners and share the expertise that the UAE has developed through its own engagement in global security frameworks. By equipping personnel from partner nations with enhanced professional skills and operational competence, the course prepares participants for field assignments in line with United Nations standards and established international best practices.
This endeavour underscores the UAE’s consistent commitment to supporting peacekeeping efforts on the world stage and advancing cooperation among nations united by a dedication to stability and security. Through such collaborative programmes, the Ministry of Interior contributes to a strengthened international community better equipped to address the complex demands of modern peace operations, while simultaneously reinforcing the partnerships upon which effective multilateral engagement depends.
