| Title | Security Sector Reform in the Republic of Moldova. Assessing the impact of international assistance |
| Summary | The concept of security sector reform refers to creating institutions that will ensure peace, security and justice, applying the principles of democratic accountability and civilian control. Currently, the Republic of Moldova, is undergoing the implementation of the security sector reform which aims to strengthen the capacities of state authorities to ensure human security, rule of law, democracy, and transparency. In the process of security sector reform the country should ensure a strategic partnership with international organizations and bilateral partners, whose assistance aims to prevent risks and threats to peace and security. But, in the same time the principle of local ownership and coordination of assistance should be emphasised and respected. Thus, the international assistance seeks to harmonize and adjust the legal and policy framework governing the security sector according to their standards. The Security Sector Reform is built on the state's ability to mitigate vulnerabilities through development and to use a range of policy tools to prevent or address security threats affecting the well-being of society. External assistance in this area is essential to ensure the practical applicability of public policies and state institutions' strategies in the field of security and defence. The thesis will assess the impаct of security sector reform and it’s future outcomes in the Republic of Moldova. Thus, thesis will make an overview of the purpose, functions and importance of multilateral and bilateral assistance. The thesis will map the challenges for the implementation of security sector reform, by analysing the convergences and divergences between donors' and recipient agendas and the local ownership of the reform. As the donor countries' programs vary significantly in their thematic focus and resources allocated. |
