About

SSR Resource Centre

The SSR Resource Centre is a project of the Centre for Security Governance (CSG). The Resource Centre serves as a space where policy-makers, practitioners, analysts, and observers interested in security sector reform (SSR) can access the latest news, research and analysis. The site is intended to be a tool to share knowledge of the latest trends and developments in the security sector and expand global understanding of this dynamic and evolving field. Below is a summary of the tools available:

  • Top Story: The first content you will likely notice on the homepage is a large image and title: this is the latest post from our Blog The Hub, and will feature a timely news story, updated research, or anything else new and innovative taking place in the world of SSR.
  • Latest From The Hub: Directly underneath the Top Story is a list of our last three blog updates, in reverse chronological order (from left to right).
  • Featured SSR Updates: Located on the top-right of the homepage, these links are a snapshot of what we consider to be the  most important content on the site at any given time.
  • SSR Country Updates: This box on the right side of the homepage displays which countries have recently been ‘tagged’ in any of our updates.
  • Event Calendar: A quick look at upcoming SSR events.
  • Jobs: A regularly updated page providing an overview of recent SSR-related positions available around the world, from a variety of organizations (private companies, international organizations, non-profits and think tanks, research institutions).

Navigating the Site

  • Countries: Organized by region, this section features country snapshots of states where SSR programs are taking place.
  • Resources: This section will feature recent publications from the Centre for Security Governance, as well as links to significant SSR publications and organizations. This is also where the CSG’s “SSR Research Community” will be housed.

About the Centre for Security Governance

The Centre for Security Governance (CSG) is a non-profit, non-partisan think tank dedicated to the study of security and governance transitions in fragile, failed and conflict-affected states. Based in Canada, the CSG maintains a global, multi-disciplinary network of researchers, practitioners and academics engaged in the international peace and security field.

The CSG seeks to enhance the effectiveness of donor assistance and support to SSR programs through its research, events, training and direct policy advice. Committed to innovation, the CSG employs various technological tools to advance its impact and reach, most notably long-distance training and conferencing platforms. Supporting promising analysts and academics as well as advancing new ideas and approaches are also core values of the centre. Through its active engagement with SSR donors and recipients on the ground in fragile and conflict-affected states, the CSG endeavours to translate research, advice and training into tangible improvements in SSR policy and programming.
