On 24 May 2018, the National Liaison Representatives (NLR) to HQ Supreme Allied Commander Transformation (HQ SACT) visited the JALLC in order to improve awareness and understanding regarding the NATO Lessons Learned Process and the JALLC's related roles and responsibilities, to share best practices in the area of Lessons Learned. The way the JALLC is transforming and preparing for the future in support of the NATO Lessons Learned Community was also presented. The visit, hosted by the JALLC's Chief of Staff, Colonel Henrique Santos, included representatives from the USA, Portugal, Canada, Croatia, Germany, Latvia, Romania, Austria, and Switzerland.
The NLRs are military nationals appointed by their Nation’s government to NATO. The NLRs provide HQ SACT with national viewpoints and information, and serve as a channel of communication between HQ SACT and their national authorities.
The visit aimed to enlighten the NLRs about the role of the JALLC as NATO Lead Agent for Lessons Learned and stressed the fact that the involvement of nations with NATO and the NATO Lessons Learned Process is of mutual benefit for the JALLC, ACT, NATO, and the senior defence leadership of nations involved.
