  3. Governance Innovation for Security & Development is… Adapted from Guttieri, 2013 …research project that seeks solutions to challenges of supporting governance in fragile environments. GISD aims to develop a framework to promote peace and well-being through good governance—provision of essential services, political moderation and accountability, stewardship of state resources, and civic participation and empowerment.  GISD researchers address current issues and trends in stability sectors—social well-being, promotion of safe and secure environments, stable governance, rule of law, sustainable economies and infrastructure, and homeland integration—and the competencies needed when the military is called upon to support to civilians in those sectors.  

  4. 5 questions for HA-SWB sector • 1) What are current best practice conceptions of ‘initial response’ priorities and capacity-building? • 2) What inter- and intra-organizational challenges in alignment with partner agencies, mission(s)? • 3) How does existing research, policy and practice conceptualize ‘transformation,’ or short-term development and intervention? And • 4) What are CA desiderata and limits for ‘fostering sustainability,’ or long-term development? • 5) What insights for HA-SWB policy and practice from innovation and infrastructure studies?

  5. What challenges in near- and future operating (and policy) context? What capacities to address them? How to think, organize differently in order to accomplish standard and new missions? ASSESS How complex adaptive systems approaches provide tools to manage interdependencies, for collaboration? PSOTEW FOCUS INNOVATE PARTNER Orienting frames for PSOTEW panels
