On 29 May, the UN will pay tribute to the work of its peacekeepers from across the world. The largest UN mission is Unmil in Liberia. Mark Kroeker is the UN civilian police chief there.
"I lead a force of international police, charged with training a new police service for Liberia.
"It is rewarding to see good quality officers emerge from the training to join the interim police force.
"I also see hope on Sundays when I go to help out at an orphanage."
