The ISMS council meeting in Helsinki 25 May, 2010
The main focus of the meeting was the ISMS Conference in Stockholm, 10-11 November, 2010 and the need for further cooperation in defence related research projects.
The discussion concluded that the ISMS - aside from the different "tracks" - also should concentrate its efforts on a rather few inter disciplinary themes:
- · Military Education
- · State Violence
- · Challenges facing small states I relation to security and defence
- · The future of Crisis Management
- · Gender and violence
- · Defence technology – management and development in smaller states
A model on how to work within these themes will be discussed at the next ISMS Council meeting in Stockholm on 9 November.
