The in-depth comparative analyses and quantitative ratings – examining government accountability, civil liberties, rule of law, anticorruption efforts and transparency – are intended to help international policymakers identify areas of progress, as well as to highlight areas of concern that could be addressed in diplomatic efforts and reform assistance.

-The OECD DAC Handbook on SSR: Supporting Security and Justice
provides guidance to operationalise the 2005 DAC Guidelines on Security System Reform and Governance and closes the gap between policy and practice. It largely follows the external assistance programme cycle and contains valuable tools to help encourage a dialogue on security and justice issues and to support an SSR process through the assessment, design and implementation phases. It also provides new guidance on monitoring, review and evaluation of SSR programmes, and highlights how to ensure greater coherence across the different actors and departments engaged in SSR.

- The Fragile States Group
is a unique forum that brings together experts on governance, conflict prevention and reconstruction from bilateral and multilateral development co-operation agencies to facilitate co-ordination and share good practice to enhance development effectiveness in ‘fragile states’.

-Principles for Good International Engagement in Fragile States
Development Ministers and Heads of Agencies endorsed the Principles for Good International Engagement in Fragile States at the High Level Meeting of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC) on 3-4 April 2007 in Paris. This endorsement signals a commitment to adapt our approach, policies and business practices to improve our engagement in fragile states. The DAC Fragile States Group will support implementation of the Principles, already piloted in nine countries, in all fragile states and at donors' headquarters.
