These pages have been designed to help you understand the French concept "Reinforcement of African Peacekeeping capabilities" ( RECAMP) following the current exercise cycle, the fourth of that type, which will be put into practice in the Economic Community Of West African States or ECOWAS.
Innovations in the RECAMP IV cycle are of utmost importance and will result in a new concept that will be soon available. This time, the Sub-region will implement a planning process on a specific theme and scenario with a view to set up and to deploy an African Peace-keeping Force. Three countries will be particularly involved in this RECAMP training : Nigeria, headquarters of the ECOWAS (Abuja), Ghana where the political-military seminar, real symposium on peace-keeping operations, will take place, Benin where the Field Training Exercise will be played.
This site gives all the participants of RECAMP IV the opportunity to get familiar with the major events of this 2003-2204 cycle, the details on seminars and conferences, the different speeches of higher officials, press articles and any other information of interest to follow this fascinating adventure.
