The job requires experience "in disarmament affairs, political analysis or in national military or paramilitary service"
The United Nations is now accepting job applications in New York City, New York for Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration officers to "contribute to security and stability in post-conflict environments."
UN DDR forces operate under the intergovernmental organization's Department of Peace Operations to "assist" the Member States, including the United States, in a boots on the ground capacity.

The job listing describes the UN's core values as "Integrity, Professionalism, [and] Respect for Diversity."
Applicants eager to conduct DDR "field missions" are required to have "seven years of relevant experience in disarmament affairs, political analysis or in national military or paramilitary service" and an "advanced university degree (Master's degree or equivalent degree) in disarmament affairs, military studies, political affairs, economics, international relations, or a related field."
The UN describes the Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration protocol as "a complex process, with political, military, security, humanitarian and socio-economic dimensions."
Key components of DDR as defined by the UN
*https://www.unddr.org/what-is-ddr/introduction_1.aspx*
include disarming the civilian population and "the development of responsible arms management programmes" and the implementation of mass detainment camps:
DISARMAMENT is the collection, documentation, control and disposal of small arms, ammunition, explosives and light and heavy weapons of combatants and often also of the civilian population. Disarmament also includes the development of responsible arms management programmes.
DEMOBILIZATION is the formal and controlled discharge of active combatants from armed forces or other armed groups. The first stage of demobilization may extend from the processing of individual combatants in temporary centres to the massing of troops in camps designated for this purpose (cantonment sites, encampments, assembly areas or barracks). The second stage of demobilization encompasses the support package provided to the demobilized, which is called reinsertion.
REINSERTION* is the assistance offered to ex-combatants during demobilization but prior to the longer-term process of reintegration. Reinsertion is a form of transitional assistance to help cover the basic needs of ex-combatants and their families and can include transitional safety allowances, food, clothes, shelter, medical services, short-term education, training, employment and tools. While reintegration is a long-term, continuous social and economic process of development, reinsertion is short-term material and/or financial assistance to meet immediate needs, and can last up to one year.
REINTEGRATION is the process by which ex-combatants acquire civilian status and gain sustainable employment and income. Reintegration is essentially a social and economic process with an open time-frame, primarily taking place in communities at the local level. It is part of the general development of a country and a national responsibility, and often necessitates long-term external assistance.
The UN website notes that "it is important to break outside of the traditional view of DDR participants as only being adult males carrying weapons, and remember that DDR participants and beneficiaries may fit all types of profiles including female ex-combatants and women associated with armed forces and groups, children, youth, the elderly and persons living with disabilities."
UN hopefuls hoping to work in New York and "contribute to security and stability in post-conflict environments" can submit their applications to become DDR officers December 2019 through February 2020.
There’s no salary range.
I look at this as a handy source of supplies for enterprising individuals.

All you can loot I would guess.

DDR? As in Deutsche Demokratiche Republik? AKA EAST Germany?
They’re not even trying to hide it anymore, are they?
As soon as they see your credentials and your Masters in Disarmament Affairs, Boko Haram and Al Shabaab are done.

2- Bill Clinton “President Bill Clinton in his campaign and during his early days in office indicated that he would seek an increased role for the U.N. in maintaining international peace.10 In a speech entitled “A New Covenant for American Security,” delivered at Georgetown University in 1991, then Governor Bill Clinton advocated “shift[ing] the burden of maintaining peace to a wider coalition of nations of which America will be a part” and exploring the possibility of establishing a U.N. Rapid Deployment Force “that could be used for purposes beyond traditional peacekeeping, such as standing guard at the borders of countries threatened by aggression; preventing attacks on civilians; providing humanitarian relief; and combatting terrorism and drug trafficking.”11 Upon taking office, President Clinton acted quickly to make good on his promise provide a greater role for the U.N.,12 a policy which his administration dubbed “assertive multilateralism.”13 In apparent response to Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali proposal that member states enter Article 43 agreements with the U.N. and “earmark” forces for participation in U.N. peace operations,14 The Clinton Administration made it known that it was going to explore the possibility of implementing Article 43.15 Additionally, in actions he considered as setting precedents for the future, President Clinton authorized several thousand U.S. logicians to serve in Somalia under the auspices of United Nations Operation in Somalia (UNOSOM),16 and he also authorized U.S. troops to serve as peacekeepers under the control of the U.N. in Macedonia.17 President Clinton in Presidential Review Directive 13 (PRD-13) also directed his administration to commence an interagency policy study on the U.S.’s role in peacekeeping, the result of which was PDD-25.18
HOWEVER, October 1993
marked the beginning of the end for this hope for an expanded role for U.N. command structures in peace operations.
On October 3, 1993, a team of U.S. ARMY RANGERS sent to capture Mohammed Farah Aideed was AMBUSHED in Mogadishu, RESULTING in EIGHTEEN AMERICAN DEATHS and the SIGHT OF DEAD U.S. SOLDIERS BEING DRAGGED through the streets of MOGANDISHU on the evening news.19
After that incident, the Clinton Administration’s policy regarding the involvement of the U.S. in peace operations began a pronounced change.20
In a speech to the U.N. General Assembly only days after the ambush, President Clinton declared that the “United Nations simply cannot become engaged in every one of the world’s conflicts. If the American people are to say yes to U.N. peacekeeping, the United Nations must know when to say no.”21
Shortly thereafter, President Clinton announced that U.S. troops would participate in U.N. peace operations only if they served under a U.S. chain of command.22 A few months later in May 1994, the Clinton Administration promulgated PDD-25 and its strict guidelines for U.S. participation in U.N. peace operations, among which included Section V regarding command and control of U.S. forces.
“Command” versus “Operational Control”: A Critical Review of PDD-25
***ADDITIONALLY, THE U.S. SOLDIERS EE MISTREATED BY U.N. COMMAND. TROOPS DEVELOPED HUGH BLISTERS ON THEIR BACKS ETC. I remember the U.M. Church made packages to be delivered to G.I’s
Consider it a supply depot. Shortens the logistics trail.

They must fear us right much!
Just look at what they are attempting to do!
Are we at the tipping point yet to get the US out of the UN and the UN out of the US?
Hold fire until you see the blue of their helmets.
The headline is a lie.
UN DDR has no intention, nor lawful authority to do anything in the US.
Why post such nonsense?
Ladies and gentlemen the targets are light blue.
The United Nations is now accepting job applications in New York City, New York for Deer Hunter Rifle Fodder and Blue Helmet Targets for militia training to “contribute to foolishly losing their lives in post-conflict environments”.
U.N. conspiracy theories have been on FR since 56 kBd modems were cool. Anyone else remember the Black Helicopters that were supposed to come for our guns?
The UN HQ is in New York. Where does this document say that its for operations in the US?
