Lesson 4: DDR Planning and Programme Design
Video Transcript
Lesson Four explores DDR planning and programme design. DDR programmes are more likely to be successful when planning is integrated and starts early, preferably during peace negotiations. This requires the various UN actors that are likely to be involved in supporting national DDR efforts to carry out planning jointly at the UN headquarters and country levels. This early involvement will show whether DDR is the appropriate course of action, and whether the UN is best suited to support national DDR efforts.
