Abstract:

This doctrine note amplifies the guidance given in JDP 3-00 on assessment drawing on emerging thinking and practice from different communities on how to monitor and evaluate within stabilisation environments as part of a comprehensive approach. Its purpose is to provide practitioners within a stabilisation context with guidance that will help them structure their thinking, plan and conduct assessments within a stabilisation environment. The document presents key issues that those commissioning, planning and conducting assessments need to consider and provides a range of commonly used options from which they may choose. The Joint Doctrine Note JDN is written specifically for a UK governmental audience both military and civilian but is intended to be relevant to a range of partners across the international community. JDN builds on the guidance given in JDP 3-00 Campaign Execution , JDP 3-40 Security and Stabilisation the Military Contribution , JDP 5-00 Campaign Planning and Army Doctrine Note 0907 Measuring the Effectiveness of Operations . It also has close links with JDN 10 Security Transitions . It draws from a number of civilian publications including the OECD-DAC Guidance on Evaluating Conflict Prevention and Peacebuilding Activities.
