"This course delivers far more than doctrine, it refines mindset. As a Teniente Coronel in the Guatemalan Army with over 20 years of service, I found the UNMO training exceptionally relevant for real-world deployments. Each module strengthened my ability to operate with neutrality, report with precision, and respond to complex field dynamics. The lessons on situational awareness, verification procedures, and civilian protection were especially impactful. I appreciated the integration of gender perspectives, IED safety, and liaison protocols; all framed within a modern, multicultural context. I recognize that this is just the beginning., so I can represent my institution effectively in multinational missions. This training is essential for anyone committed to peace, justice, and strategic transformation. I highly recommend it to military professionals who seek not just participation , but impact. 📘"
