  • ESCG: Tapping the Human Dimension: Civilian Capabilities in ESDP  2009-03-04 Pdf file

    •    

    The number of ESDP missions has increased and their scope of activity has widened in the past years. Capabilities have been at the centre of the debate on ESDP missions, but the focus has been overshadowed by military capabilities, monopolising the debate at the expense of civilian capabilities.

     

    There is now a strong need for the EU to address professional skills in the Civilian Headline Goals and establish a clear vision of how the External Action Service will be set up once the Treaty of Lisbon is finally implemented.
