emerging practices and technologies within the current
resource-constrained environments.
The Workshop was broken into seven concurrent work
groups (WG) sponsored by the PSOTEW stakeholders.
Work shop participants were asked to select their top three
work group choices, then the groups were cross leveled
to ensure a dispersion of relevant operational experience
throughout all work groups. The following are descriptions
for each of the work groups:
experiences in order to improve civilian and military efforts
in a shared space. The Course will be finalized and offered
by USIP. Deliverables will include an outline / table of
contents for new Civ-Mil Relations Course, and an inventory of on-going civ-mil education and training programs.
WG 2: Determining "True" Demand Signal for
Non-Lethal Capabilities sponsored by the Joint Non-lethal Weapons Directorate. Despite non-lethal weapons
(NLW) relevance in contemporary operations, interest
by combatant commanders (IPLs) and NATO (studies/
WG 1: Developing a Civ-Mil Relations Course sponexercises), and maturation of promising technologies,
sored by the U.S. Institute for Peace (USIP). The purpose
DoD continues to be challenged in fully integrating NLW
of the WG was to frame a Civ-Mil Relations course built
into operations plans. The GW validated the NLW deon needs and challenges identified by policy, strategy
mand signal, enhancing senior leader advocacy and NLW
experts and practitioners, which are not addressed in other integration. Deliverables will include a greater awareness
courses. Many existing efforts appear fragmented and
throughout the community of NLW utility and availabililimited to specific organization members. The new course ty, as well as a tool to best determine NLW demand signal
will bring together essential concepts, practices, people and and its target audience.
