Applying Capability Based Planning in Lower Capacity Defense Institutions. The Republic of Guinea: A Case Study

Abstract

The United States Department of Defense (DOD) develops the capabilities and capacity of allied and partner nations' defense institutions in support of United States defense strategy, enhances allied and partner capability and capacity to manage and sustain armed forces, and contributes to broader security-sector reform (SSR) initiatives. The particular assistance provided to a nation's defense institutions is agreed to between the partner nation and the United States Government (USG) and is structured around episodic engagement between subject matter experts (SMEs) and partner-nation personnel. These engagements follow an assessment of the organizational weaknesses and an agreement on establishing a roadmap for addressing the shortfalls.
