“Somebody asked us what we would bring back to Italy from the experience - as far as we are concerned, it has been seeing the desire to learn that shone in the eyes of our female students, the very mirrors of their souls.”

“We are of the view that the project has been a successful operational paradigm that we have also been able to apply to female police officers participating in Carabinieri training in Palestine, Djibouti and Somalia. With that in mind, I would also like to emphasize the innovative formula for stability policing that our Carabinieri in Iraq have adopted, driven by an inclusive approach and based on the goal of achieving long-term normalization, which has proved more effective when seen as an autonomous pillar of crisis-management operations and a catalyst for fostering lasting peace and stability. On a final note, I would like to give special thanks to all of the women who have bravely pioneered the project and have worked tirelessly, painstakingly and with great sacrifice and commitment.”

“The second part of the course was focused on increasing trainees' basic competence and skills in self- defence, search and handcuffing techniques, inter alia. There were also interactive debriefings and discussions to promote respect for professional ethical principles and the code of conduct. The increased efficiency, integration and interoperability of the female police officers we have trained are now confirmed by their successful deployment for the purposes of stabilizing areas liberated from Da'esh, especially at the local level. In conclusion, I want to emphasize that the Carabinieri strongly believe in the police training initiative in Iraq.”

“The course, which took place at the Civil Defence Training Centre in Baghdad over a two-week period, was specifically tailored to 40 Iraqi female police officers, warrant officers and non-commissioned officers. Trainees took part in classes and lectures on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which we consider an essential precondition for every training initiative. Special attention was devoted to enhancing the ability to carry out investigations designed to counter sexual and gender-based violence, as well as crimes against the most vulnerable groups. This is a crucial point that I wish to emphasize - there is a direct correlation between the availability of well-trained, empowered female police officers and the ability of effectively counter sexual and gender-based violence.”

“The reason for this is simple: strengthening women's participation in the police and improving women's role and influence in post-conflict environments can dramatically improve the overall effectiveness of stabilization efforts, especially at the local level. This objective is achieved by performing a dedicated training for female police personnel through separate female policing courses. In total, in two courses performed in Baghdad in April and July, some 100 police personnel have already been trained, and our plan is to continue training many more in the coming months. The main purpose of the first female policing course was to increase the knowledge and awareness of fundamental human rights in order to deliver a suitable training on gender-related law-enforcement techniques and tactical procedures.”

“Our main mission is to enhance the capabilities of Iraq's police forces through training, advising and assisting them so that they can play a primary role in the stabilization of the country. The Train, Advise and Assist Task Force was recently renamed the "Police Task Force-Iraq" in order to emphasize the specificity of this contribution within the framework of the Global Coalition. The Police Task Force-Iraq coordinates the training initiatives delivered to all religious and ethnic groups represented in the Iraqi Police. In this context, the respect for gender balance truly constitutes the backbone of the Carabinieri strategy in crisis management.”

“Major Patrono: It is a great pleasure and honour for me to attend this meeting, and I thank the Security Council for the opportunity to brief its members on Italy's commitment in the field of stability policing, a sector in which the Carabinieri have established themselves as one of the most innovative and reliable partners for international organizations, including the United Nations. In April 2017, 1 had the honour to act as team leader during the first female policing course delivered by the Carabinieri for the Iraqi Federal Police in Baghdad. Indeed, the Carabinieri have been exercising a leadership role in the framework of Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq since 2015, when a task force was deployed to lead and coordinate all training initiatives for the Iraqi Federal Police.”
