Out of the security deadlock: challenges and choices in the Sahel
- current
The project focused on the governance of security sector reform (SSR) in Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger and on its interlinkages with other regional security processes. The analysis of governance connected to SSR also included its links with disarmament, demobilisation and reintegration (DDR) of violent extremists and militias, a pivotal issue in the region. The research placed particular emphasis on the role of the European Union and of other international actors in the region such as the United States, Gulf Countries, and China.
