  • Annual Diversity and Inclusion Report 2018
    ANNEX 1 Annual Diversity and Inclusion Report 2018 1-1 ANNEX 1 Executive Summary 1. The purpose of this Annual Diversity and Inclusion report is to document the progress that NATO has made throughout 2018. Part I of this report highlights the achievements, Parts II, III and IV describe the composition of civilian or military staff in NATO by gender, grade, geographical distribution, and age. 2. In 2018, improvements to policies, leadership, talent acquisition, training, communication, monitoring/reporting, and developing new services all contributed to Diversity and Inclusion. 3. Policy Development and Implementation: The International Staff commissioned an independent, external assessment of NATO policies and practices to prevent harassment and discrimination. The review included benchmarking against other organisations1, as well as the use of best practices, observations and views provided by NATO stakeholders through interviews. 4. Talent Acquisition: A special focus has been given to improving the attractiveness of vacancy notices. Several NATO entities have used the augmented writing platform, Textio, to make job advertisements more gender and culturally neutral. In addition, NATO participated in the Global Careers Fair for Women in International Organizations recruitment event. Representatives from NATO entities interacted with candidates online engaging in dialogue for a half-day session, and providing information on vacancies and the application processes. 5. Training and Development: The fourth cycle of the NATO Mentoring Programme for women was launched. This programme was designed as a measure to increase the pool of qualified female candidates, and to identify and remove internal barriers which may deter or prevent women from advancing within the Organization that may be caused by structural barriers existing between different services and categories of staff.

  • Documents Chapter 2
    THE ORGANISATION OF COLLECTIVE SELF-DEFENCE 226 27. Reform of NATO’s Integrated Military Command Structure 25 APRIL 1999 The role of the integrated military structure of NATO is to provide the organisational framework for fulfilling the military responsibilities and undertaking the military tasks given to the Alliance by its member governments. Some of those tasks have to do with the basic obligation of the Alliance to defend its member countries against threats to their security, in accordance with Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty. Others relate to the implementation of the Alliance’s new missions, that is, discretionary operations beyond those required by the commitment to collective defence of Article 5. NATO has very few permanent military forces and only relatively small integrated, multinational staffs at the various military headquarters and agencies which make up the integrated military command structure. The majority of so-called “NATO Forces” are forces that remain under national control and only become available to the Alliance in specific circumstances. They are then placed under the responsibility of NATO military commanders. The integrated military command structure is the agreed basis for organising, training and controlling these forces. The new security environment has allowed NATO countries to reorganise their forces. In most cases, this has meant introducing major reductions in nuclear weapons, cutting back conventional ground, air and naval forces by 30% to 40%, and reducing levels of readiness. NATO countries have also endorsed a blueprint for developing a new NATO military command structure designed to enable the Alliance to carry out the whole range of its missions more effectively, including crisis management, peace-keeping or other peace support operations.

It is home to national delegations of member countries and to liaison offices or diplomatic missions of Partner countries. The work of these delegations and missions is supported by the International Staff and the International Military Staff, which are also located within NATO Headquarters. When the decisions taken by member countries have military implica- tions, NATO has the military infrastructure and know-how in place to respond to demands. The Military Committee recommends measures considered necessary for the common defence of the Euro-Atlantic area and provides guidance to NATO’s two strategic commanders (the Supreme Allied Commander Operations based in Mons, Belgium, and the Supreme Allied Commander Transformation in Norfolk, Virginia, United States). The Military Committee, located at NATO Headquarters, is supported by the International Military Staff, which plays a similar role to that of the International Staff for the North Atlantic Council. There are approximately 4200 people working at NATO Headquarters on a full-time basis. Of these, some 2100 are members of the national delega- tions of member countries and staffs of national military representatives to NATO. There are approximately 1200 civilian members of the International Staff (including agencies and other NATO bodies) and just over 500 members of the International Military Staff of which approximately 90 are civilian.
