Security Sector Reform Missions: Planning and Evaluation

The U.S. government and the U.N. have moved ahead with formalizing their work on Security Sector Reform (SSR). They have also begun to concentrate on the challenges of assessments and planning in SSR operations. At the same time, it is becoming clear that commercial security firms will be asked to play an important role. At this meeting of the SSR Working Group, a panel of experts discussed these topics from their various perspectives.
