The simulation training facilities will consist of a mock city, mine garden, classroom, and paintball operations area. The mock city will replicate urban environments with buildings, streets, and public spaces, allowing officers to train in urban operations. The mine garden will simulate real-life minefield scenarios for practical experience in mine detection and disposal.
The classroom will serve as the central hub for theoretical instruction, debriefings, and strategy sessions.
The paintball operations area will simulate tactical combat scenarios to enhance officers’ understanding and strategic planning capabilities.
The project will be managed by UNOPS in close coordination with key stakeholders such as the respective Police Departments and Donor. A Project Board will be established to ensure robust internal controls and effective management of the project.
