During the meeting of the IAPTC executive committee in March 2003, the group considered the issue of IAPTC membership. Attendance at the eleven Annual Conferences to date (1995-2005) has varied significantly, mainly due to the theme of each conference. The 2002 conference, for example, focused on Civil-Military Cooperation (CIMIC) training and therefore attracted, in addition to personnel from several training centres dealing with this issue, many CIMIC experts from various organizations and military headquarters around the world. In addition to a changing annual attendance, many past participants have been individuals representing governments or institutions, with little or no interest in membership but rather in discussing the subject of the moment.
The Executive Committee, as a result of discussions in 2002, proposed to the 2003 Annual General Meeting that the secretariat continue to maintain a data base of attendance over the years; that all peace operations education and training institutions are automatically considered members of the IAPTC, and that there be no formal IAPTC membership; i.e. no established list of organizations and individuals. Those who participate in the annual meeting will be considered to comprise the current IAPTC membership and will therefore be able to participate in the members’ session at the annual meeting to consider IAPTC management and development issues.
The following is a list of organizations and institutions that have participated in IAPTC meetings to date.
