The
Security Needs Assessment Protocol: Improving Operational Effectiveness
through Community Security
The Security
Needs Assessment Protocol project of the United Nations Institute
for Disarmament Research is working to improve operational effectiveness—meaning
the impact and sustainable success of any undertaking designed to
effect social change in a community—in humanitarian, development
and security operations by improving the design of field-level activities
that pertain to community security.
The project aims to create a systematic and rapid
means of assessing local security problems as they are understood
by community members themselves. This Protocol could be applied
by interested agencies to conduct cooperative cultural research
in the community, and then use the knowledge gained to better align
resources with local needs.
