Kofi Annan Centre

Today we visited the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre in the Teshie area of Accra - a southern part of the city on the beach. The KAIPTC was established around 2003 and serves as a center of excellence for research and training in peace support operations. While there we met with members of the Women, Peace and Security Institute who provided us with an informative overview of the important work that they are doing around the broader peace and security agenda in Africa. WPSI seeks to support women's contributions to peace negotiations and peacekeeping and security sector reform initiatives that support the peace and security agenda in Africa.
