The Evaluation of DPKO/DFS Planning during the Force Generation Process and Related Engagement with the Security Council and Troop-Contributing Countries
Overview
The United Nations currently deploys over 85,000 troops in 16 peacekeeping missions, yet has no standing army. The Organisation generates its forces exclusively from Member States. The timely generation and deployment of forces capable of implementing mission mandates is of critical importance, as increasingly peacekeeping operations are deployed in theatres requiring peace enforcement.
Over the past year, there have been important reforms to the force generation (FG) process; moving from a ‘numbers-based’ to a ‘capability-driven’ approach. A single capability and performance framework is in development, and a Peacekeeping Capability Readiness System
(PCRS) has been newly established to bolster the Secretariat’s strategic FG capacities. This evaluation assessed the relevance, efficiency and effectiveness of the United Nations in planning during the FG process, and related engagement with the Security Council and Troop-Contributing Countries (TCCs). To do so, it considered both Member States’ expectations, as defined in Official Documents and through the perceptions of Military Advisers (MilAds), and factors internal to the Secretariat’s FG process.
