Content_paragraphs:  The Office of Military Affairs should ensure that troops deployed to UNMISS
  
  have adequate knowledge and skills to perform mandated tasks, while UNMISS
  
  should, as outlined in the United Nations Infantry Battalion Manual, ensure that
  
  incoming troops are evaluated for their knowledge of protection of civilians, in
  
  particular with regard to sexual and gender-based violence and conflict-related sexual
  
  violence. Closing skills gaps in-Mission is difficult, given the pace of operations.
  
  However, where skills and knowledge are lacking, UNMISS should work to address
  
  these gaps. The Mission should also increase the number of dedicated gender experts
  
  within the force. Mobile training teams from New York or regional peacekeeping
  
  training centres with relevant gender and conflict-related sexual violence expertise
  
  could support these efforts. The Mission should also take steps to ensure that
  
  knowledge is not lost with the turnover of force gender advisers and should review
  
  the length of deployment for such advisers to determine if it is appropriate or if it
  
  undermines the effectiveness of their role.
