Meet Peacekeeper Kenny, the brave police peacekeeper koala who is ready to join your collection in celebration of Australian police peacekeeping. Kenny is wearing a replica of the day-to-day patrol uniform worn by Australian police peacekeepers in Timor-Leste and Cyprus in the 2000s, which included the Australian flag, the words ‘Australian Police’ on the shoulders and the United Nations (UN) blue beret. Over the course of 60 years the uniforms of police peacekeepers evolved from the heavy woollen uniforms worn by officers who first deployed to the UN mission in Cyprus in 1964 to khaki uniforms worn in the deserts of Sudan and South Sudan.
For 60 years, Australian police have been helping to build peace, security, stability and justice in countries affected by conflict and violence. They have worked with local communities, international organisations and the UN to protect human rights, prevent crime and support the rule of law. Peacekeeping Kenny Koala is a tribute to their courage and dedication, and reminder of the importance of police peacekeeping.
