It is not only about understanding mandates or normative frameworks, but about being able to translate them into <strong>concrete decisions on the ground<\/strong>. This module supports participants in developing <strong>strategic thinking, analytical capacity, and an integrated vision<\/strong> of peacekeeping, competencies that are increasingly in demand within international organisations, public administrations, and actors across the humanitarian and security sectors.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide heading=&#8221;Nikola Raskovic&#8221; image=&#8221;https:\/\/helsinkiespana.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Testimonios-REACT-Nikola-Raskovic-REACT-Modulo-II-2025-Helsinki-Espana.jpg&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; header_level=&#8221;h3&#8243; header_font_size=&#8221;30px&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_transition=&#8221;on&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Participant Module III, 2023.<br \/>National Project Officer, Security Co-operation Department, OSCE<\/h6>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Participating in Module III of the REACT course, Challenges to Sustaining Peace, was a truly enriching experience. The combination of outstanding lecturers -from the UN, EEAS, and Folke Bernadotte Academy- together with the diversity of participants, created a dynamic learning environment that perfectly bridged theory and practice. The sessions provided valuable insights into peacebuilding processes, elections in fragile contexts, and DDR approaches, all grounded in real-world examples. I also have to say, the organization by Helsinki Espa\u00f1a was exceptional\u2014both professional and welcoming. It was one of those rare opportunities where learning, exchange, and inspiration truly came together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_slide][\/et_pb_slider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tools and Strategies for Sustaining PeaceGeneral Information This intensive five-day course (40 hours) provides specialized training in tools and strategies for peacekeeping, aimed at individuals interested in governance, and peacebuilding in complex contexts.
