ISG Armenia MET: Women's Integration into the Armed Forces
September 5, 2024
The Defense Security Cooperation University's Institute for Security Governance (ISG) recently concluded a weeklong workshop on “Women’s Integration in the Armed Forces” in Yerevan, Armenia. Led by ISG Security Governance faculty member, Cary O’Connell, the event was hosted by the Armenian Ministry of Defense and the U.S. Embassy’s Office of Defense Cooperation.
The intended outcome of the weeklong workshop was to develop policies to recruit and employ more women in the Armenian Armed Forces. Integrating women fully and equally can be valuable to a country’s national security sector.
The Defense Security Cooperation University’s Institute for Security Governance (ISG) recently led a peacekeeping operations workshop in Garmisch, Germany, with nine personnel from the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Serbia and the Serbian Armed Forces.
Congratulations to the latest cohort of the Institute for Security Governance's International Defense Acquisition Resource Management (IDARM) "Principles of Defense Acquisition Management" course graduates.
