During the past decade, Linguistic and Cultural Programs have sprung up across the DoD in an effort to train deploying personnel to successfully communicate with civilians and insurgents alike through an advanced understanding of their language and knowledge of cultural and political proclivities. Language, Regional and Cultural expertise are still considered more of a capability than a requirement, despite their prominent role in special operations efforts to stabilize fledgling governments during reconstruction and counterinsurgency efforts.
This conference will afford the opportunity for attendees to learn about efforts being taken to increase the prominence of these critical skills in military training programs, create a unified LRC strategy across the DoD, develop a strategy for utilizing cultural and linguistic expertise to overcome insurgency, and obtain the resources necessary to solidify this expertise in a long-term governmental knowledge bank.
"Revamping the Military Education System to Reflect an Increased Focus on Developing Linguistic and Cultural Skills"
Taming Political and Battlefield Tensions Through a Comprehensive Grasp of Language and Culture
