Mission and Program Overview

Mission

Strategic capacity group's (scg) mission is to enhance the ability of the united states and its partners to build effective and sustainable security sector capacity worldwide.

Strategic Capacity Group (SCG) is an international education nonprofit dedicated to enhancing the strategic capacity of individuals and governments worldwide to harness the opportunities and manage the risks of a rapidly changing and complexly interdependent world. Created in 2013 by senior educators and practitioners from the US professional military education community, US government, and private academia, SCG is uniquely poised to address critical gaps in existing capacity building programs and to help donors and host nation partners develop cost effective alternatives. If appropriately structured and implemented at the strategic level, capacity building programs can be effective, cost efficient, and sustainable.

DescriptionGrantsExpenses
The need for strategic education capacity building across the globe is enormous. In some countries, professional education is rudimentary or nonexistent. In others, professional education institutions are teaching curriculum mired in the past or rooted in authoritarian practices. Still elsewhere, personnel at entry, mid-career, and/or senior levels seek new tools and approaches for managing emerging threats and challenges. SCG's approach to capacity building is focused on enhancing institutional accountability and effectiveness and strengthening human capacity to manage conflict and to design, implement and lead change. SCG offers four educational capacity building programs:Strategic Evaluation and Assessment: For capacity building programs to deliver on the promise of cost effectiveness and sustainable impact, SCG conducts a strategic assessment of the sector, identifies gaps, and make recommendations to address those gaps.Educational Institution Building and Design: Appropriately designed and delivered, professional education can enable partner nations and their societies to develop the human resources and effective and accountable institutions needed to attain prosperity and security. SCG's professional education and training capacity building program focuses on six components: System Assessment and Design, Management and Performance, Faculty Development and Pedagogy, Curricular Design and Content Development, Implementation Evaluation, and Impact Assessment.Professional Education and Training Courses: Through skills building workshops and facilitated policy analysis seminars, SCG's experienced educators offer facilitated learning and experiential exercises to prepare practitioners to deal with real world challenges and threats.Sustainable Living Networks: SCG promotes the building of relationships among government, industry and civil society to build human and institutional capacity. It also utilizes cooperation among regional actors to share concerns and lessons learned and to address regional challenges through common approaches.SCG is implementing projects for the US and UK governments that include:-Security sector reform best practice training and network development for senior practitioners from Algeria, Benin, Burkina Faso, Egypt, Jordan, Libya, Mali, Malta, Mauritania, Morocco, Niger, Senegal, Tunisia, Turkey, and Yemen.-Best practice training in international coordination and cooperation to manage cross border threats in North Africa.-Community based border security skills building workshops and facilitated policy analysis seminars to senior security officials and border security commanders in Tunisia.-Comprehensive mapping and needs assessment of border security capacity and threats in Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia.SCG also supports capacity building programs for US government agencies in the Middle East, Africa, and Central and South America. SCG experts have decades of experience teaching senior government and security service officials how to enhance their capacity to conduct strategic assessments, strengthen institutions, and manage and respond to emerging security threats.In 2014, SCG implemented "Borders for All: Community-based Approaches to Border Security in North Africa," a United Kingdom Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO)-funded project to build capacity for Tunisia's border security agencies using a community-based approach. The project was implemented by a transatlantic consortium that includes SCG and two UK-based organizations, International Alert and Aktis Strategy.During a period of political transition and high public expectations for security sector reform, Tunisia has struggled to adapt past methods for border control to new threats. Tunisia's security services must cope with state breakdown in Libya; reverberations from the violence in Mali; the proliferation of violent political ideologies; and emboldened jihadists, arms smugglers and human traffickers. Along Tunisia's Algerian border, particularly in Kasserine region, 'hard' security responses alone risk increasing insecurity by escalating confrontations and fuelling public grievances. In marginalized regions like Kasserine, livelihoods depend on smuggling, trust in state institutions is low, and the state's ability to analyze and respond to the drivers of insecurity is weak.SCG and its consortium partners designed the Borders for All Project as a strategic capacity building initiative to help the Tunisian government, security forces, and communities in Kasserine develop a common understanding of security challenges through dialogue, skills building and research; acquire the skills needed to comprehensively tackle them through workshops and facilitated policy analysis; experiment with initiatives that demonstrate early results through workshops and pilot projects; and use the evidence of what works to advocate for policy change with senior ministry and government officials in Tunis. The project outputs create a mutually reinforcing cycle that includes: (1) research and cooperative security initiatives, (2) Skills building workshops for mid-level operational commanders, (3) Facilitated policy analysis for senior security officials; and (4) Policy advocacy to encourage senior officials to adopt new strategies that incorporate community sensitive approaches to border security.$0$47,938
As a member of the consortium, SCG's contribution to the project was threefold, reflecting three of SCG's capacity building approaches.First, as part of its mission to build capacity for strategic evaluation and assessment, SCG worked closely with Tunisian government officials and operational force commanders to identify the principal border security challenges Tunisia faces in the aftermath of the events of the Arab spring. SCG experts traveled to Tunisia throughout the project to support the assessment of needs and to identify capacity gaps, sharing these with Tunisian government counterparts through workshops with operational force commanders and facilitated policy analysis seminars with senior ministry officials.Second, as part of its mission to provide Professional Education and Training Courses to build strategic capacity, SCG designed and delivered two Skills Building Workshops and two Facilitated Policy Analysis seminars for some 60 Tunisian border security commanders and officers and for senior border security policy officials in Kasserine and Tunis. The workshops employed a model for community sensitive border security developed by SCG experts for the Tunisian context.Finally, as part of its mission to promote capacity building through Sustainable Living Networks that serve as platforms for the exchange of information and lessons learned, SCG and its consortium counterparts engaged in meetings with Tunisian government officials, other Tunis-based donors, including the U.S. government, and other nonprofit implementers focused on Tunisian security sector reform to coordinate responses and share lessons learned. SCG also supported the development of a report to chronicle key findings and lessons learned that where shared with the Tunisian government.The project achieved three main impacts. Border security officials and operational commanders learned how to employ strategic assessment tools that enabled them to link how poor public reputations compound their operational challenges and to identify critical gaps in capacity for dealing with populations in marginalized border regions. Through skills building, mentoring and facilitated policy analysis, Tunisian officials and operational commanders identified the need for greater flexibility to engage local media and community leaders, as well as training in how to do so, in order to establish trust and reshape narratives that fuel grievance and radicalization. They also proposed increasing the channels through which they directly communicate how they work to protect communities and what they are doing to address weaknesses and public concerns about their work - including institutionalizing regular face-to-face contact with communities to build rapport and demonstrate command-level awareness of grievances. Senior officials also drafted recommendations to embed community engagement principles the curriculum of the Land Forces Academy, the principal security sector education institution in Tunisia, and to incorporate community sensitive approaches in personnel performance indicators border security personnel.Within the Kasserine area, the epicenter of Tunisia's terrorist challenge, local community leaders and border security commanders, with support from the consortium, established dialogue forums to help border security agencies, communities and local government frankly discuss the challenges security forces face, identify common interests, and recommend immediate, confidence-building actions. Forum participants developed an action plan to institutionalize a new security committee in Feriyana, Kasserine Governorate, to tackle security challenges cooperatively.Policymakers in Tunis developed a more robust understanding of the drivers of border challenges in marginalized areas along Tunisia's border with Algeria with a particular focus on the critical area of Kasserine. Through Skills Building Workshops and community engagement fora, Tunisian officials identified the need for implementing senior official study days to learn how to work with border communities, advocated for new border policies that incorporate decentralized, cross-government collaboration and communication with the public, and suggested legislative changes that could better protect informants. Additionally, SCG and its consortium partners engaged government, donors, and civil society in Tunisia and North Africa to share evidence of the impact that can be achieved by collaborating with communities and to generate interest to invest in replicating these approaches elsewhere.$0$0
