Enclosed can be found: EEAS(2015) 317 EEAS CPCC 1

3 1. First, a 'graphic overview' of most relevant civilian CSDP concepts for planners and mission staffs. 2. the second is a one-pager per concept/guideline identifying main elements contained in each; all documents are numbered which re-appear on the overview mentioned earlier. This compilation aims to serve primarily those that are taking part in the planning, setting up, support and conduct of civilian CSDP missions, as well as those performing functions within the missions by allowing easy understanding of and access to relevant existing doctrine. It draws on the CMPD inventory of concepts, but does not replace it. It is rather a working tool that gives, at one glance, the planner/mission staff an idea of the concepts' contents. This has proven a useful complementary tool already. The one-pagers will be used to feed the Goalkeeper system once fully established, in cooperation with the CMPD. EEAS(2015) 317 EEAS CPCC 2
