On building trust with technology
2016
Information and communications technologies (ICTs) are quickly becoming an important aspect of post-conflict police reform programs. There is consequently an urgent need to be clear on the purposes of ICTs in police reform and on what expectations the police as well as communities have to the role of ICTs in building secure societies. Despite this, there is little work done on purposes, roles and expectations, and on how ICTs in fact contribute in reform processes. Based on fieldwork in Afghanistan and Pakistan, this Policy Brief Concept Note offers insights into these complex challenges from South Asia. As armed conflict ends, and peacebuildings begin, police reform becomes one of the pillars of international support. For years, this has meant a militarization of police forces. However, building positive relations between the government and its citizenry is important for a more sustainable peace. This includes developing alternative models of policing and it includes finding inclusive means for communications between authorities and communities.
