Promoting an Informed and Coordinated International Community Response to Security and Justice Issues

This initiative builds upon a first phase from September 2008-September 2009, which developed recommendations to improve the effectiveness of EU and international community programming and in particular the extent to which it is responsive to the needs of local populations. The second phase aims to carry forward some of these recommendations, in particular by:

• Providing a space for coordination and discussion on key security issues for the international community in a Security and Justice Coordination Group convened every two months;
• Bringing local experiences and needs to the attention of the donor community (in Nepal and Europe), both through the Security and Justice Coordination Group and the production of regular security and justice ‘snapshot’ briefing papers.
