On 17 February 2010 ACCORD signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Cairo Regional Centre for Training on Conflict Resolution and Peacekeeping in Africa (CCCPA) based in Egypt. The MoU provides a framework for cooperation in the fields of education, training and promoting capacity development for African peacekeepers.
