Un courriel de la société des officiers du campus universitaire de Lausanne me rappelle, avec un peu de nostalgie, que j’avais participé à l’Assemblée générale constitutive de la Société le 26 mars 2013 en accompagnant le Cdt C Blattmann.
Today, 25th June 2021, the Peace Support Operations Training Centre in cooperation with the Geneva Centre for Security Policy successfully completed 9th Defence Attaché Orientation Course in Defence and Diplomacy. Structure of participants and speakers presents the highest standards of education delivered during one week of the course. In total, 24 participants, defence attaches and defence diplomacy trainees, from 10 countries (Bosnia and Herzegovina, Albania, Bulgaria, Pakistan, Romania, Russia, North Macedonia, Slovakia, Slovenia and United States). Besides PSOTC and GCSP staff, participants had a privilege of having such a group of high level of speakers, the US, British and Swiss ambassadors, NATO HQ SA and EUFOR commanders as well current resident and non-resident defence attaches.

Ma thèse en 180 secondes est un réel défi en regard d’une présentation traditionnelle: comment formuler sa recherche en si peu de temps, la décrire en termes clairs et compréhensibles pour des profanes, la mémoriser et la présenter face à un fond noir, en l’absence de public?
C’est aussi une belle expérience. Félicitations aux participantes et aux participants et aux quatre gagnantes et gagnants.
Le tout a été organisé avec brio par l’UNIL. Merci à Edy Ceppi, Mélanie Bosson, Nathalie Randin, Pascale Deneulin et ainsi qu’à l’équipe vidéo et à Félix, le photographe. Sans oublier le jury.

Innovative approaches to dialogue amid the « new normal » – What are the challenges for the Diplomatic Dialogue (DD) amid COVID-19? How can tools and new approaches to facilitation benefit DD 2.0 and how can we look beyond the track 1-3 models?
In the context of the 25th anniversary of the GCSP, I contributed to this event.

A friendly discussion on cooperation between the two institutions took place on at the GCSP on Friday, February 10, 2017.
Bien sûr, faire une croisière nocturne sur la rivière Huangpu, peur s’apparenter à une visite d’affiches publicitaires, tant les façades vitrées de Pudong font office d’écran au socialisme de marché. D’autant que l’embarcation qui nous porte est moins un bateau mouche qu’un bateau sandwich, où chaque marche sert à afficher une publicité.
Both brigadier general Naser Al Maihrat and myself held a short welcome message where we stressed the importance of Defence Attaches as trust builders in the current challenging context.
The DA is an instrument of trust building
This course is an important tool of trust building
You are trust builders
