We are now hosting 12 senior officers from the Royal College of Defence Studies. They are undergoing training on strategic security and governance issues to prepare for positions at the very top ranks of the military. Interestingly the visitors are mostly not from the UK.
They are also from Japan, Kazakhstan, Bangladesh, China, Qatar, Jordan and Canada. The international participants provide the British officers (and eachother) with a really varied set of perspectives. In Tunisia they have been given a warm welcome from government figures and people outside government including the South Mediterranean University and Shell Tunisia. It has been a pleasure to host them.
