520 _aFollowing the Pact for the future and Independent Study on the Future of United Nations(UN) Peacekeeping, New Models and Related Capabilities, the UN and it's member states are reforming UN peace operations. The independent study suggested models ranging from those on prevention, with a focus on protection of civilians, on traditional monitoring tasks, on the support to political transitions on key functional areas, on human security issues, on the protection of non-humans, and on new domains and spatial focus. Many of them clearly involve policing, law enforcement, or broader rule of law functions. Many require specialised police skills. This means three things. Firstly, member states' selection process needs to be skill and merit-based, and the pool of candidates needs to be diverse, beyond current practice. Secondly, where models require missions to engage with various segments of the local community, police can be well-suited but their selection, training, from of deployment and posture in the mission need to be tailored to the local situation. Lastly, smooth transition and partnerships of each mission is vital for the mission, and for the police.
