BOS Ukraine

BOS Ukraine

The ‘Bolstering Oversight of the Security Sector in Ukraine: Developing Relations and Capacity of Independent Oversight Actors’ project runs from February 2018 to February 2019 and is financed by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The project aims to foster independent oversight of the security sector in Ukraine.

In BOS, CESS together with our Ukrainian partner CACDS, seek to boost knowledge of security sector governance amongst oversight actors and at the same time promote a better working relationship between independent oversight actors, such as civil society organisations, the ombudsman institution and the accounting chamber.

The project will consist of several training workshops and the publication of policy briefs where recommendations are provided with a view to strengthening capacity of security sector oversight actors.
