The implementation of the armed forces’ peace support task includes recruitment and HR management, logistics, financial planning and management, mission-specific training, national command and control during operations, evaluation and PR work for Swiss military contingents and individuals engaged in peace support missions abroad.

As assigned by the United Nations and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) military observers, staff and liaison officers are on duty either as individuals or in small teams.

The range of courses is extensive and is devised to satisfy both national and international as well as civilian and military interests.

All members of the Army (AdA) who are deployed to peace support operations (PSO) obtain their training from SWISSINT.

Serving as infrastructure are, among other things, the military training area in Stans-Oberdorf and camp SWISSINT, which provides accommodation for 180 persons in about 200 containers.
