Within the framework of ZIF’s research project on Local Ownership, Leopold von Carlowitz wrote a report on “Local Ownership in Practice: Justice System Reform in Kosovo and Liberia” which was recently published as an Occasional Paper with the Swiss research institute DCAF (Geneva Centre for the Democratic Control of Armed Forces).
It focuses on experiences with the concept of local ownership in the law and justice reform programmes of the UN peace operations in Kosovo and Liberia.
The final report of the overall project that was funded by the German Foundation of Peace Research. It compares the local ownership-related policies in the fields of election administration and the rule of law and will be published soon.
