| Summary: | This report outlines the insights and conclusions of a conference hosted by the United States Institute of Peace's Center for Security Sector Governance from June 30 to July 1, 2011, titled "Security sector transformation in North Africa and the Middle East". The event brought together geographic and security sector reform (SSR) experts from think tanks and the academic community; officials from the U.S. government, United Nations, and a range of other bilateral donors and international organizations; civil society groups based inside and outside the Middle East; and private sector organizations. The conference explored the opportunities for SSR in the wake of the Arab Spring, considering potential entry points for assistance and the challenges faced by international donors and domestic reformers alike. There was a general consensus that the Arab Spring presented an unprecedented opportunity for democratic change in the region, and that SSR, judiciously applied, could help advance that transformation. |
