...You're about to intervene in an unstable
region after a bitter conflict. Peace is uncertain, resentment festers, and outside actors are keen to disrupt your activities.
The environment is full of hazards: a harsh climate; difficult terrain; unexploded munitions; armed criminals; and desperate
displaced persons. Indigenous actors are skeptical of your motivations and ready to sponsor terrorism or insurgency if you
oppose their interests. Now you must bring stability, in cooperation with disparate government agencies, military units, non-governmental
organizations, and international institutions. What are you going to do? - Real-time strategy
game - Fully on-site - Free downloadable software - All soft-copy materials and data files supplied -
Full-spectrum inter-personal and inter-agency skills - Adaptable for different learning objectives - See-all debriefing
and review tools - Objective performance data and anonymous peer review
The Peacekeeping Mission Simulation
is a multi-sided real-time human-digital exercise, incorporating entry, disaster assistance, disaster recovery, counter-insurgency/terrorism,
and reconstruction phases. This is not a combat simulation and no military knowledge is required. This
exercise develops skills in leadership, teamwork, logistics, public diplomacy, sensemaking, and communications.
