PK75: A Peacekeeping Anthology

The year 2023 marks two peacekeeping milestones, the 75th anniversary of the first United Nations peacekeeping operation, and the 35th anniversary of the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to UN Peacekeepers. CPVA has recognized both by developing an anthology of the personal experiences of representative Canadian peacekeepers. It focuses on Canada's historic contributions to peacekeeping through the eyes of individual Canadian peacekeepers and those who have significantly impacted and enabled their efforts. This anthology is a work in progress, first published on 29 May 2023 and continuing with updates until the end of the year. You are welcome to browse through the anthology and may share links to any of the stories.


We welcome additional contributions from other peacekeeping veterans. More information provided on our dedicated website: PK75.ca.
