WELCOME

TO THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL FOR SECURITY FORCES

(EIFORCES)

The international community is increasingly in need of training for security forces to ensure a return to civil peace in conflict areas, particularly within the context of Peace Support operations (PSOs).

To put a stop to the “phony” periods of “no war no peace”, when more or less diverse forms of violent extremism stir up instability bringing development to a standstill, it becomes imperative to have competent forces specially to impose or restore public order so that spatial and temporal authority of the State should be restored.

In this regard and mindful of the challenges in the sub region and throughout the continent, the President of the Republic of Cameroon, Head of State and Head of the Defense and Security Forces, HE Paul Biya, took the initiative to create a training institution in Cameroon for security staff specialized in PSOs. It is thus for this purpose that he created the International School of Security Forces (EIFORCES) by Decree N°.2008/179 of May 22, 2008, supplemented by the decree N°.2012/307 of June 25, 2012 relating to the organization and functioning of the institution whose missions and national support for their accomplishment, as well as the international cooperation contributions and the partnerships are hereby concisely spelt out.
