This report by the Canadian Defence & Foreign Affairs (CDFAI) Institute urges Canada to reconsider and rejoin UN peace operations. The authors Jocelyn Coulon and Michel Liégeois, PhD argue that peace operations in the twenty-first century are different from those in the period between 1950 and 2000 and that with clearly understood terms of reference, Canada should return its Forces to UN operations when such missions are judged to be in our national interests.

Peacebuild is organizing a workshop and electronic discussion to enable members of the broader women, peace and security community in Canada to reconnect, share information, learn about new international developments and explore collaborative opportunities. 
The evening includes:
This manual developed by the United States Institute of Peace and the U.S. Army Peacekeeping and Stability Operations Institute presents the first strategic “doctrine” ever produced for civilians engaged in peacebuilding missions. It is a practical roadmap for helping countries transition from violent conflict to peace. For decades, militaries have been equipped with doctrines that guide their decisions and actions. Civilian actors, however, still operate today without any unifying framework or shared set of principles to guide their actions in these complex environments. As global demand for these missions continues to rise, this gap will only impede cooperation and cohesion that is needed across the peacebuilding community to ensure the success of any Stabilization and Reconstruction mission.
