In 2017, UPEACE concluded a 3-year project with the UN Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA), which provided scholarships and training for 140 women on disarmament and non-proliferation activities with a clear focus on peace and conflict. The project consisted of 4 different training sessions in Addis Ababa, Cairo, Bangkok and San Jose. In January 2018, UPEACE began a second project with UNODA and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, the OSCE Scholarship for Peace. This initiative, conducted in partnership with 28 organisations whose work contributes to disarmament, non-proliferation (DNP) and development-related issues, offers training programmes providing foundational skills and knowledge on conflict prevention and resolution through arms control, disarmament and non-proliferation with a specific focus on OSCE-relevant instruments, for 70 young professional women and men from OSCE participating States and Partners for Co-operation.
