A total of 45 officers and noncommissioned officers from the military Armed Forces and the national police participated in Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law courses taught at the Military School of Human Rights for a period of three days.

After April 15 the students will be capable of acting as instructors to their own counterguerrilla platoons, as assistants to the high command, as company instructors, legal counselors, or also to serve as facilitators of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law procedures in urban and rural areas.

This course has been scheduled for three groups throughout the year.
