Through advocacy, the ASSN promotes Security Sector Reform\/Governance (SSR\/G) awareness and policy development within Africa and beyond. Much of the advocacy work is in the area of facilitation of training, engaging relevant stakeholders in policy dialogues, presentations at conferences and seminars, lobbying governments and donors to buy into the SSR\/G agenda, making critical SSR\/G resources available on the website, and publications for use by both academics and practitioners, among others. Some of the ASSN’s recent advocacy works include the joint hosting of the Inaugural Africa Forum on SSR in November 2014 at the African Union Commission in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. During this event, ASSN experts chaired panels and presented papers on a wide range of security issues including Hybrid Political Orders (HPOs).<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
