International Cooperation
The fundamental purpose of international cooperation in the military area is the implementation of activities which effectively and directly support the efforts of the Republic of Slovenia as a partner and full member of NATO and the EU.
Since 29 March 2004, when Slovenia joined the North-Atlantic Alliance, the Slovenian Armed Forces have taken an even more active part in supporting international peace. Their activities comprise the participation of Slovenian Armed Forces members in peace support operations and humanitarian activities.
International operations and missions with the Slovenian Armed Forces participation:
The Slovenian Armed Forces also participate in allied structures with national military representations.
Representatives of the Slovenian Armed Forces also perform peacetime duties in military representations and NATO command and force structures, within the European Union, international organisations and bodies as well as in multinational commands and staffs. Members of the Slovenian Armed Forces on peacetime duties abroad form a part of the peacetime establishment of the Slovenian Armed Forces abroad, which provides national cohesion and homogeneity, uniform and successful representation of interests of the Republic of Slovenia and the Slovenian Armed Forces abroad as well as a rational and effective support for their troops.

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
