Abstract
Minimal attention has been given to United Nations Police (UNPOL) officers and how all phases of their deployments affect them. The purposes of the study are 1) to discuss how UNPOL officers’ experiences in a peacekeeping mission impact their lives, personally and professionally, through the process of pre-deployment to post-deployment, 2) to discuss how personal characteristics relate to these experiences, and 3) to begin to address gaps in current research of UNPOL officers deployment experiences. The qualitative study involved interviews of 61 UNPOL officers. Thematic analysis was used to analyze how pre-deployment, deployment, and post-deployment periods affect a diverse set of officers from a wide range of developed, developing, and least developed nations in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America, Oceania, and South America.
