IAV 16 featured 30 outstanding speakers from 6 continents, exposing challenges, issues, risks, novel and not so novel solutions, extensive product and service ranges, comprehensive programmes, mature and immature requirements and even the odd gleam in the soldier’s eye. Some enduring themes continued to resonate: the need for better dialogue; despite resource challenges – a reasonably healthy industry, responsive to requirements; an emphasis on realistic, pragmatic and Lieutenant simple requirements; modularity, scalability and future proofing enabled by an Open System General (Rtd) Architecture (OSA); exchange of lessons and requirements between nations and partners can Sir Gary Coward deliver real benefits, and; the suggestion that the tank is dead still appears to be premature!

The basic curriculum of the officers dedicates an important share to the vocational training, which is provided by the University. The training, indeed, fully counts in the curriculum since it is also allocated with ECTS and, therefore, is an integral part of the diploma.

SECURITY POLICY OBJECTIVES The principal objective of Norwegian security policy is to safeguard and promote national security policy interests. This is best achieved by contributing to peace, security and stability both in areas adjacent to Norway and in the wider world. Nationally Norway must be in a position to uphold its sovereignty and sove- reign rights and to exercise authority in order to safeguard our interests. At the same time, the progress of globalisation means that geo- graphical distance is no longer a determining factor for potential threats to our security.

    NEDERLANDS-BELGISCHE MILITAIRE SAMENWERKING Nederlands-Belgische militaire samenwerking in de European Battlegroup Noodzakelijke investering voor de toekomst? Nederland en België voelen de spanning tussen de behoefte aan operationele capaciteiten en de daling van defensiebegrotingen. In de huidige tijd van bezuinigingen op het defensieapparaat moeten zij optimaal gebruik maken van hun militaire middelen. Een verdere intensivering van bestaande en het aangaan van nieuwe samenwerking ligt dan ook voor de hand. Zo zullen Nederland en België in de tweede helft van 2014 samen deelnemen aan de European Battlegroup (EUBG). De EUBG biedt een specifieke rapid response- eenheid die de Europese Unie militair in staat kan stellen om met militaire middelen snel te reageren op ontluikende crises.
