The Department of Operational Support (DOS) and the Office of Information and Communications Technology (OICT), in cooperation with the Government of Nepal, will host the 7th Partnership for Technology in Peacekeeping International Symposium in Kathmandu, Nepal (13-16 June). 

The theme of the 2023 Symposium is “Harnessing Technology for Digital Transformation”. 

The Symposium will focus on aligning technology deliverables with the objectives of the Department of Peace Operations’ Digital Transformation Strategy (DTS) and will build upon the momentum and initiatives resulting from prior symposia.

To date, the Partnership for Technology in Peacekeeping initiative has resulted in the Department of Operational Support (DOS) and Department of Peace Operations (DPO) implementing impactful projects with Member States, international organizations, academia, and civil societies, and delivering technology solutions to address key challenges facing United Nations field operations. 

The Symposium offers a unique forum for Member States and Peacekeeping missions’ leaders and experts to engage and share technological and operational knowledge, best practices and lessons learned.

The Government of Nepal will be represented at the Ministerial level and the UN delegation will be represented at the Under Secretary General level.
