Objectives of the IMBEX 2018-19

It is the second edition of the IMBEX. The objectives of IMBEX 2018-19 are:

  • Train the Myanmar delegation for participation in United Nations peacekeeping operations under the UN flag.

  • Provide opportunities to the army personnel of both the nations to serve effectively in UN missions by providing understanding about each other’s training, tactics, procedures and best practices.

India is one of the largest contributors to the UN peacekeeping force and has a rich experience of serving in UN peacekeeping operations. This expertise will be shared with the delegation from Myanmar.
