Moreover this year’s topic is focusing on EU’s Peace Support Operations and for that purpose the program envisages two capacity building workshops, one in Brussels and one in Ljubljana. Among the topics that are covered, great emphasis is put on the changes that are affecting the EU’s Common Security and Defense Policy after the adoption of the Lisbon Treaty. In the meanwhile participants are expected to deliver a policy paper which should outline the challenges that the EUas well as the countries from the region are facing with in their involvement in peace support operations abroad.
