Part of
Civil society has become an indispensable part of the global discourses on democratization, good governance, sustainable development, and security. This paper examines the ways in which civil society actions contribute to Security Sector Governance and Reform (SSG/R) and Sustainable Development Goal-16 (SDG-16). Civil society groups perform three major roles in the Global South: an agent of democratic accountability and civilian oversight; a space for new discourses on security and development; and an alternative provider of people-oriented security.
