OSCE (Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe) is the world's largest regional security organisation with 57 participating states from North America, Europe and Central Asia. The organisation primarily deals with conflict prevention, crisis management and post-conflict management. The Danish Defense has deployed a military adviser to the Danish OSCE mission in Vienna, and the Danish government yearly submits a report on the work in the OSCE to the Danish parliament.
The OSCE focuses on a wide range of areas such as arms control, confidence- and security building measures, human rights, election observation, minority rights and countering terrorism.
The OSCE headquarter is located in Vienna in Austria. OSCE also has offices in Copenhagen, Geneva, The Hague, Prague and Warsaw. OSCE employs approx. 2,200 employees working in three OSCE institutions, The Secretariat, Missions and Field operations in South-Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia.
Furthermore, the Open Skies Treaty (the Treaty on Mutual Transfers) and the Vienna Document on Confidence- and Security building measures are administered in the framework of the OSCE. The agreements contribute to openness and military stability in Europe.
