  The United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) is a training arm of the UN system with a mandate related to building capacities for the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development through outcome-based training and learning initiatives. The Division for Peace strives to support the (re-)establishment of peaceful, just and inclusive societies by enabling individuals, institutions and organisations to contribute meaningfully to sustainable peace. UNITAR’s Pre-Deployment Training & Advisory Team (PDTA) delivers training to thousands of peacekeepers from a variety of troop contributing countries. This training focuses on a broad range of peacekeeping related topics, such as protection of civilians; protection of human rights and women, peace and security. Tactical training in these areas become more effective when participants can visualise the peacekeeping environment. For this purpose, we want to create a miniature simulation village with peacekeeper models.
