1 Implementation of the EU Global Strategy, Integrated Approach and EU SSR Charlotta Ahlmark, ESDC May, 2018
2 Why EU want to manage crises?
3 Conflict prevention and crisis management management matters to the EU The security challenges are increasingly complex Self- Interest A single country cannot tackle it on its own A joint vision also when conditions and politics are uncertain Values Priorities policy commitments
4 Significant geostrategic changes / uncertainties
5 EU a unique actor for peace and conflict prevention Geographic scope Perception as balanced actor Carrots and sticks EU tools and instruments Political and financial weight
6 Shared Vision, Common Action: A Stronger Europe A Global Strategy for the European Union s Foreign And Security Policy (June 2016)
7 EU Values in a Global Strategy for the European Union s Foreign And Security Policy Without global norms our vital interests are at risk EU values justice solidarity equality non-discrimination, pluralism and respect for diversity Conflicts feature multiple dimensions Response of building resilience, stabilisation and crisis management Human Security and Protection of civilians (EU GS)
8 The EU Global Strategy - turning a shared vision into action
9 Security and Defence
10 New developments for crisis management The permanent structured cooperation (PESCO) EU-NATO Joint Declaration Reinforce civilian/military synergies and coordination; strengthening the EU s rapid response toolbox; Improving military mobility and EU Battlegroups Situational awareness, cyber defence Capacity Building in Security and Development (CBSD) operationalisation (IcSP instrument amended) linked to the EU SSR framework to keep accountability Military Planning and Conduct Capability (MPCC) (equivalent to CPCC) Enhance the responsiveness of civilian crisis management
11 Work underway - updating priorities for civilian crisis management Assess the implications of the Global Strategy for the priority areas of civilian crisis management, initially agreed by the European Council in Feira in June 2000, to address both identified new challenges and persisting gaps in the originally agreed capabilities and conduct of these priority areas. Police, rule of law and civil administration will remain at the core of civilian CSDP. Security challenges incl. irregular migration, hybrid threats, cyber security, terrorism, radicalisation, organised crime, border management and maritime security, to be added.
12 Integrated Approach Crisis Range of EU options Diplomatic actions Economic Sanctions CSDP Activity* Development Aid Humanitarian Assistance Conflict Prevention measures JHA, TRADE, CLIMA,
13 EU Global Strategy: Increased level of ambition on conflict prevention, conflict resolution and stabilisation Multi-dimensional approach "Through the use of all available policies and instruments aimed at conflict prevention" Multi-phased approach Multi-level approach "Acting at all stages of the conflict cycle. We will invest in prevention, resolution and stabilisation, and avoid premature disengagement when a new crisis erupts elsewhere. " "To conflicts acting at local, national, regional and global levels none of these conflicts can be solved by the EU alone. " Multi-lateral approach "Engaging all players present in a conflict and necessary for its resolution. Partner more systematically with regional and international organisations, bilateral donors and civil society."
14 Matching conflict interventions to the conflict cycle: the traditional approach Traditional view: linear trajectory, sequential, time-limited, siloed interventions UN/World Bank, 2017
15 Matching conflict interventions to the conflict cycle: a more analysis based and integrated approach More integrated view of conflict interventions: across various intervention types, policy areas, and across conflict phases UN/World Bank, 2017
16 Global Strategy IA - Matching ambitions by setting up a new structure - PRISM "The EU will engage in a practical and principled way in peacebuilding, and foster human security through an integrated approach." Security sector reform Early Warning Global National Local Regional Mediation Stabilisation 4 Crisis response
