Description

Accountable security institutions are a cornerstone of durable democracy. The Center for Civilians in Conflict (CIVIC), in partnership with the Stimson Center, will undertake research and workshops to identify the most common reasons accountability falls short in the United States and abroad, and what forms increased accountability might take. The work will be informed by consultations with an array of non-governmental and governmental stakeholders and will result in a published report and public events promoting recommendations for bolstering the security and justice sectors at the state, federal, and international levels.
