"The course "Ebola Virus Disease: Awareness and Precautions for Peace Operations Personnel" provided a solid foundation for understanding and managing Ebola outbreaks in a peacekeeping context. The content was comprehensive, covering essential topics such as transmission, protective measures, and the importance of personal protective equipment (PPE). The inclusion of real-world scenarios and practical advice was particularly helpful for application in the field. However, there is room for improvement. The course could benefit from more in-depth coverage of gender-specific considerations and practical case studies that address how gender dynamics affect outbreak responses. Additionally, incorporating more interactive elements and hands-on exercises could enhance learning outcomes and better prepare personnel for field situations. Overall, the course is valuable and well-structured, but refining it to address these aspects could further increase its effectiveness and relevance for peace operations personnel."
