On March 22-23, 2001, four organizations co-hosted the fourth annual Urban Operations Conference: the Military Operations in Urban Terrain Advanced Concepts Technology Demonstration, the Center for Emerging Threats and Opportunities, the U.S. Marine Corps Nonlethal and Urban Operations Program, and RAND Arroyo Center. Among their many varied interests, these sponsors share a desire to improve the readiness of U.S. and allied armed forces to conduct operations in urban areas, domestically and worldwide. The event featured speakers from the United States, Israel, Jordan, and the United Kingdom who addresses the following topics: Effects of urbanization on national military strategy; Actions needed to improve urban operations readiness; How to focus limited capabilities in urban environments; Coordinating civil and military objectives during stability operations; Psychological implications of conducting actions in densely populated areas; and Training military personnel for stability missions conducted in villages, towns, and cities.
