Security System Reform in Ghana

Posted by Charlie Edwards at 12:40pm on Friday, 9th December 2005

Kofi_Annan_Centre.jpg As part of a project for the Department for International Development (DFID) Hannah Green and I went to Accra, Ghana for a three day workshop on Security System Reform (SSR), hosted by the Kofi Annan International Peacekeeping Training Centre (KAIPTC).

The workshop was run by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development - Development Co-operation Directorate (OECD DAC). The OECD DAC are looking to develop more concrete guidance for development practitioners on how to engage in SSR as they believe, 'policy without a change in development practice or a change in practitioner behaviour at field level is of limited use'. Demos will be running a workshop with DFID in the New Year using a methodology that has been designed to help policy makers and practitioners work together.
