Genesis and evolution
Genesis
The capacity deficiencies noted by the United Nations, African police forces deployed as part of the Peace Support Operations (OSP), have led Cameroon and its partners to begin a reflection in 2005 on setting up a center dedicated to the training of police units, individual police officers and security experts for PSOs.
Following the political will of His Excellency Paul BIYA, President of the Republic of Cameroon, the International School of Security Forces (EIFORCES) has since pursued a triple objective :
Contribute to strengthening regional stability.
Improve the security governance of African countries.
Promote common standards among police and gendarmerie forces for peace operations in the context of UN and African Union missions.
