Guidelines on the Peacekeeping Capability Readiness System

The purpose of the guidelines is to explain objectives, organization, and structure of the Peacekeeping Capability Readiness System (PCRS), to detail the procedures related to the registration of pledges made by Member States and to outline the criteria and conditions for pledges to be accepted and elevated to different levels of readiness in the PCRS.

The objective of the PCRS is to ensure readiness and timely deployment of well prepared peacekeeping capabilities to field missions. It should also allow for more predictability, standardization, and efficiency in the management of offers as these
guidelines establish clearly defined criteria and a set process for registration and verification to be followed by Member States and the UN Secretariat. The guidelines are aimed to develop a common understanding by Member States and the Secretariat around a predictable and dynamic process of interaction for the registration, acceptance, assessment, and subsequent elevation of pledges.

The guidelines are also available in Spanish.
