Part I, paragraph 18 description of conditions that define mission failure and success. The mandate must address all the elements of the response group and establish mechanisms whereby they can be coordinated to achieve maximum unity of effort. b. Unity of Effort In a multifunctional force, it is unlikely that unity of command will be achieved beyond the UN military and the subordinated elements of the UN’s civilian agencies. Nevertheless, unity of effort between the military and civilian components of the operation will be essential to achieve a coherent approach to their common objectives. A workable level of coordination between the elements can be achieved only by dialogue and consensus and not command. c. Political Awareness Political factors have a pervasive influence on PSO. National government officials must be aware of how national policy impacts on tactical decisions, and must ensure that over-control and political directions do not divide the response group and act against its mandate. PSO staff should be aware of long-term requirements of post-conflict peace building, its significance in the mandate and how political factors influence the overall campaign plan, choice of military weaponry, tactics, the degree of force exerted, and the operational concept. d. Long-Term Planning Although some peace operations may be short in duration, most will require longterm civilian development projects that involve several elements of the response group. Underlying causes of intercommunal violence and the resulting damage to the society of the host nation will take decades to heal and rarely have a clear or decisive resolution. Therefore, there is the need to assess operational viability as long-term strategic and political commitments. e. Legitimate Conduct The perception that all the elements of a response group are acting justly and correctly is derived first from their mandate. It is also essential that forces act and are seen to act within domestic, national, international, and military law, as well as within the authorizing mandate and Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA). Failure to do this will prejudice the force’s authority and ultimately its operational effectiveness. f. Security Self-defense is an inherent right for all the elements and individuals in a response group. A degree of security sometimes can be assumed in maintaining an 28
Part I, paragraph 18 impartial and noncombatant status because the military element force protection is a command responsibility. In mid- and high-level PSO, where consent is fragmentary and the situation volatile, the military force may be given specific responsibility for the protection of the civilian components of the operation. 29
