Lesson One details the UN approach to DDR. Since the late 1980s, the United Nations has increasingly been called upon to support the implementation of disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration programmes in countries emerging from conflict. In a peacekeeping context, this trend has been part of a move towards complex operations that that seek to deal with a wide variety of issues ranging from security to human rights, rule of law, elections and economic governance, rather than traditional peacekeeping where two warring parties were separated by a ceasefire line patrolled by blue helmet soldiers. While the UN has acquired significant experience in the planning and management of DDR programmes, it has to establish a collective approach to DDR and clear and usable policies and guidelines to facilitate coordination and cooperation among UN agencies, departments, and programmes.
