Supporting the UN and partners to enhance the skills and capacity needed to address today's most complex and interconnected peace and security challenges
UNSSC supports the United Nations (UN), Member States and partners in strengthening capacities to prevent conflict, sustain peace, and address evolving peace and security challenges. We offer tailored, practical, and context-specific learning to turn global policy commitments into effective action. Our work covers conflict prevention and analysis, mediation, climate, peace and security, Women, Peace and Security (WPS), Youth, Peace and Security (YPS), data and foresight, integrated humanitarian-development-peace approaches, and scenario-based safety and security training for personnel in high-risk environments.
