Defence Administration and Sustainable Development

The tasks of the defence administration support sustainable development. Defence policy, military national defence, the coordinated comprehensive defence approach, assisting other authorities, and military crisis management and peacekeeping operations improve stability and security in society and neighbouring areas. These tasks create the basis and prerequisites for activities that meet the requirements of sustainable development in society. The goal of the defence administration is to implement the tasks set for the administrative branch in a way that is sustainable socially, financially and ecologically.
