Peacekeeping English Project
Essential English language skills

The British Council manages the Peacekeeping English Project (PEP) programme on behalf of the United Kingdom Foreign and Commonwealth Office, the Ministry of Defence, and the Department for International Development.

As one of the most widely spoken languages around the globe, English plays a key role in conflict zones where communication is essential to armed peacekeeping forces.

By providing a platform to develop English language skills, the Peacekeeping English Project gives soldiers around the world an invaluable tool to better manage conflict - since English is the international language of interoperability, it enables multinational forces taking part in NATO, EU and UN peace support operations to communicative effectively with each other.

In addition to hands-on training, PEP also provides free online language development for military personnel, border guards and police through the British Council's LearnEnglish Peacekeepers website.

The aim of PEP is to reduce, resolve and prevent conflict worldwide through improved English language communication and in particular: 
To ensure an increased contribution to international peace support, security & humanitarian/disaster relief operations through improved interoperability by establishing a locally sustainable system of EL training for military & other security personnel.
To facilitate the short term rapid build up of a specific number/target of English language users to meet a country’s multinational peace support obligations or facilitate international contact for senior personnel.
To promote the development of a long-term sustainable host nation infrastructure to eventually enable a self-sufficient strategy to meet that country’s peace support operation provision and international contact needs.

Where does PEP run?
Since it began in 1996, the Peacekeeping English Project has designed and set up over 35 new projects around the world including the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia and Mozambique.
