MTTs: Allow JFCNP partners to pursue a broad and common vision of security and
prepare together for future
operations and missions.
COLLECTIVE DEFENCE
COOPERATIVE SECURITY
CRISIS MANAGEMENT
MTTs: Create a framework that enhances a broad understanding of the civil dimension and guides JFCNP partners on how best to engage with non-military actors.
This objective is achieved through the integration of briefings in the syllabus on the Civil Dimension and the actual participation of Civilian Actors and Organisations (OCHA, UNHCR, WFP etc.) during the MTTs, both CIMIC and CEP.
MTTs: Strengthen JFCNP partners knowledge and capacities by collecting, analysing and sharing good practices and lessons identified in crisis response planning, resilience and disaster management.

13. MTT – Opportunities
Participation of Civilian Actors and Organisations in MTTs (IOs, GOs, NGOs etc.) provides a comprehensive picture of the operating environment and reflects the full spectrum of Civil-Military Cooperation
Lessons identified from MTTs after action reviews/evaluations of the MTT captured through a dedicated questionnaire can inform and shape future MTTs
Training audience must include civilian national entities (inter-ministerial and inter-agency approach)
Strengthen and enhance MTTs learning outcomes by targeting the same audience with a follow-up training activity (i.e. CIMIC1 and CIMIC2)
“Networking”

14. MTT – Challenges
Participants’ selection to be aligned with MTT objectives
Cultural Awareness
Take into consideration language barriers and the need to use interpreters
Need for continued Liaison & Coordination with the HN MTT PoC and the firm commitment/engagement of the requesting entity
Standardization of MTT training material (Course Script & Briefing Material) can facilitate the delivery and ensure that the key learning outcomes are achieved
Expectations Management: NO NATO approved course, NO tactical level from JFC NP

15. NATO Strategic Direction South – Final Considerations
MTTs offer a rich menu of education & training opportunities and contribute to NATO’s efforts to project stability and strengthening security outside NATO territory
Over the last 3 years, MTTs have allowed JFCNP to develop a network of partnerships with non-member countries from the Euro-Atlantic area, the Mediterranean and the Gulf region, and other partners across the globe
In , the JFCNP J9 CMI/CIMIC will be implementing a comprehensive liaison & outreach strategy to continue to contribute to the implementation of JFC NP Core Tasks
JFC NP broader partnership activities enhance international security, defend the values on which the Alliance is based, and help develop relations based on common values, reciprocity, mutual benefit and mutual respect
