Civil-Military cooperation held in Finland [1] [] Date: 2023-06 By combining the event all relevant stakeholders from the multi-disciplines were able to be updated and briefed on many subjects, including training opportunities, cross-cutting topics, the role of FINCENT and further education. I am very grateful to Finland for hosting such an important event, especially as our newest Alliance member. I am also pleased at the level of interest here this week Assistant Chief of Staff SHAPE J9, Brigadier General Zarka Editson ALB AF said. “The subjects raised today are fundamental operational enablers and we at SHAPE J9 continue to offer military support, direction and guidance where required across the NATO structure and command. The war in Ukraine sadly reminds us how important these subjects are in support of operations." Following this conference SHAPE J9 and the Civil-Military Cooperation Centre of Excellence (CCOE) will jointly conduct the integrated CIMIC Key Leader Conference and Community of Interest Workshop. This event will take place from the 5th to the 9th September 2023 at the CCOE in The Hague, Netherlands concentrating on the core subject of Interoperability.
