The 2006 country indicators for foreign policy: Opportunities and challenges for Canada
The Fragile States Monitoring and Assessment Project is a research endeavour of Country Indicators for Foreign Policy (CIFP), undertaken with support from the Government of Canada through the Canadian international Development Agency (CIDA). Its goal is to provide evidence‐based support to government programming decisions in fragile states. The project comprises one part of a whole‐of‐government response to emerging best practice in fragile states, placing emphasis on understanding the fundamental source(s) of fragility, and on the need for a carefully considered, closely coordinated strategy to address those underlying concerns.
