2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report is presented by the Department of Defense (DoD) in accordance with Title 10 of the United States Code, section 2249c. The Regional Defense Combating Terrorism Fellowship Program (CTFP) was established to meet an emerging and urgent defense requirement to build partnerships in the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) through targeted, non-lethal, combating terrorism (CbT) education and training. CTFP directly supports the GWOT by providing CbT education and training for mid/senior-level international military officers, ministry of defense civilians, and security officials. The CTFP s goals are: Partner countries develop and execute CbT objectives and strategies that are complementary to U.S. goals and strategies; Partner countries develop and sustain CbT institutional capacity and employ CbT operational capabilities in a manner consistent with international norms; Partner countries denounce and reject violent extremism and have institutional capacity to outweigh organizations committed to violent extremism, and; Partner countries share CbT-related best practices and operational information with the United States and among themselves. CTFP programs are designed to address key combating terrorism challenges globally, regionally, and in specific countries through a tailored program of educational and training activities. CTFP provides a unique and flexible tool that can focus efforts toward building partner capacity to meet a specific Combatant Command objective. The Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Partnership Strategy provides policy oversight. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) provides program and financial management. CTFP requires approval from the Chiefs of Missions prior to any event or engagement. This report accounts for the expenditure of appropriated funds during Fiscal Year 2008 (FY08) for the CTFP, including: the countries that received CTFP funding; the total amount of funding provided for each country; and the educational courses attended by the foreign officers and officials.

5 I. REGIONAL DEFENSE COMBATING TERRORISM FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE GLOBAL WAR ON TERRORISM (GWOT) A. OVERVIEW Created in 2002, the Regional Defense Combating Terrorism Fellowship Program (CTFP) was established to meet an emergent and urgent defense requirement to build partnerships in the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) through targeted, non-lethal, combating terrorism (CbT) education and training. CTFP directly supports the GWOT by providing CbT education and training for mid/senior-level international military officers, ministry of defense civilians, and security officials. CTFP provides unique relationship- and capacity-building opportunities that enable partner countries to address threats of terrorism within their borders and regions and strengthen collaboration with and support for U.S. and partner efforts to defeat terrorism. The CTFP s goals are to assist partners to: Develop and execute CbT objectives and strategies that are complementary to U.S. goals and strategies; Develop and sustain CbT institutional capacity and employ CbT operational capabilities in a manner consistent with international norms; Denounce and reject violent extremism and have institutional capacity to outweigh organizations committed to violent extremism, and; Share CbT-related best practices and operational information. CTFP programs are designed to address key combating terrorism challenges globally, regionally, and in specific countries through a tailored program of activities. The CTFP is a flexible tool that can focus efforts toward building partner capacity to meet a specific Combatant Command (COCOM) objective. The CTFP works hand-in-hand with COCOMs to identify candidates for programs and to develop CbT programs specifically tailored to partner nations and their regional and global (Pakistani CTFP Participants) are being employed as instructors for training of troops who have been earmarked to fight the militants Pakistan s Director of Military Training relationships. COCOMs recommend participants to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) for approval. Target candidates include senior and mid-level military officials, ministry of defense civilians, and other foreign government security officials who could have an impact on their country s ability and willingness to cooperate with the United States in the war on terrorism. CTFP funds these participants to attend programs in the United States and abroad. All candidates are verified and vetted in accordance with Sec of the Department of Defense (DoD) Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2007 (P.L ) (the Leahy Amendment ). 1

6 The CTFP builds interagency cooperation among partners by training a broad range of foreign CbT military officers and government security officials and provides specialized programs to address individual country needs. CTFP programs engage military, national police, gendarmerie, internal security, border security, and other security officials. The program enables the DoD to implement the President s National Strategy for Combating Terrorism more effectively by providing resources that can be targeted toward integrating instruments of national power, traditionally expressed as diplomatic, economic, informational and military. In addition, CTFP seeks to integrate military instruments with other security sector elements such as financial, intelligence, and law enforcement. In FY08, 2,343 foreign military and security officials attended CTFP-funded programs throughout all six Regional COCOMs. This included CbT education and training support to emerging regional and sub-regional The successful completion of (CTFP) got me to the Counter Terrorism Centre in Ghana as the head. It enabled me to have a greater insight in CbT and become the focal point for the country. (I have) made contributions for terrorism related legislation which is receiving attention from lawmakers. CTFP Alumnus Being responsible for planning and coordinating internal military operations, my participation has broadened the perspective from which I make analysis of the general situation with regards to dealing with domestic terrorists. CTFP alumnus organizations and alliances. Regional training events are particularly effective in developing personal and professional relationships among security officials from many countries within a given geographic area. Additionally, the CTFP includes a series of globally-oriented courses that enhance mutual understanding and facilitate cooperation across the globe. Regional and global events are crucial in building a robust network of CbT officials who are familiar with each other and are able to reach out to other organizations and countries to coordinate effectively on CbT issues. However, the CTFP recognizes that section 2249c restricts payment of costs only to those associated with the education and training of individuals who are currently foreign military officers, ministry of defense officials, and security officials. Therefore, all foreign participants in CTFP events are screened to ensure their current eligibility under the law. In most events, U.S. personnel are learning alongside CTFP-funded participants, and developing and reinforcing relationships between partner countries and the United States. Only an empowered network of CbT practitioners will defeat the networks of our adversaries. The CTFP catalyzes networks and actively sustains and facilitates these connections through continuing education and training activities that reinforce relationships. The network, as it grows, will become increasingly self-reinforcing, and less reliant on the United States for support. 2

PROGRAM ASSESSMENT ALUMNI SURVEY In FY08, the CTFP reviewed alumni feedback from two short courses which CTFP funds: the two-week Civil-Military Responses to Terrorism course at the Center for Civil-Military Relations (CCMR) and the five week course on Terrorism and Security Studies at the Marshall Center. In FY07, a similar survey was conducted of alumni from CTFP s two longest programs, the 10-month International Counter Terrorism Fellows Program (ICT Fellows Program) at the National Defense University (NDU), and the 18-month Special Operations Master s Degree program at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS). The goal of the FY08 survey was to continue the survey-based program assessment begun in FY07. Intended to evaluate overall partner capacity building, the alumni survey of CTFP short courses adds depth to the baseline CTFP alumni assessment data. These results will be used to assess the program s success to-date, set benchmarks for future performance, and develop strategies to improve the program. 7

12 SUMMARY OF SURVEY RESULTS The surveys were designed to assess the program in three areas: (1) Do U.S. partners believe that the education and training provided by CTFP helped partner nations build the mutual understanding and relationships that will enable them to become more effective allies in the war on terrorism? (2) What actions did CTFP partners take to increase combating terrorism capacity as a result of CTFP education and training? The following key statistics highlight the short courses effectiveness in these areas: Over 70% of alumni believe that their participation in the class directly and positively impacted their country s ability to combat insurgents and domestic terrorists. Following a short course, 80-90% of alumni have given presentations to individuals and groups in their home country about their experience. Over 30% of respondents have influenced or participated in the development of their countries CbT policy or legislation. 100% of respondents would like to maintain some sort of connectivity with their schoolhouse (e.g.: alumni events, virtual collaboration, print publications). Aside from providing indicators of program impact, maintaining a collaborative dialogue with participants following attendance at a CTFP funded course furthers the effectiveness of the course and facilitates healthy long-term relationships. As noted above, 100% of survey respondents desire to stay in contact with the institution they attended. Relationships created through an educational or training experience open an opportunity to continue to access key leaders, at all levels and arenas of government, and build an international coalition of likeminded combating-terrorism practitioners. A 2008 short course alumnus captures the essence of the course s value: During the seminar I got the chance to meet many officers from different areas of the globe and with different realities and threats faced by each. Actually, the course was very constructive but the contribution of the others was even more. Consistent with the 2007 long course survey statistics, CTFP alumni share their knowledge and experience with a variety of individuals and groups upon returning home. A recent course participant described the action he has taken since attending a short course: I have started giving lectures on combating terrorism taking a lot from various material and knowledge I received from your good school. Whether through verbal presentations to colleagues, friends, government representatives, or seminar attendees and/or publications, CTFP alumni carry their knowledge and experience back to their sphere of influence. 8

13 Alumni expressed the direct impact of course material on their individual combating terrorism responsibilities and thus their country s security through statements such as: Being responsible for planning and coordinating internal military operations, my participation in the [CTFP] course has broadened the perspective from which I make analysis of the general situation with regards to dealing with domestic terrorists. As with the 2007 long course survey respondents, over 70% of those surveyed responded that the course contributed to or improved their country s ability to combat insurgents and domestic terrorists. Partner nation capacity building takes place as a result of providing current and emerging leaders with lessons learned, relationships, access to resources, and an environment to continue sharing experiences and ideas. The statistics above indicate that even short exposure to combating terrorism education and training enables countries across the world to fight terrorist on their turf. Maintaining these relationships is essential to ensuring U.S. security as well as proactive, accurate engagement in combating terrorism. In March 2008, Pakistan's Military Training Directorate sent a letter to the US Embassy in Islamabad commending CTFP's contribution to fighting terrorism as follows: "CTFP has contributed positively towards capacity building and enhancement of the combat potential of the Pakistan Army in fighting Global War on Terrorism. CTFP is enhancing the capability and capacity of forces to fight terrorism with adoption of modern skills, techniques, and enhanced combat potential. CTFP trained officers are utilized in a judicious way to maximize benefits from their training." This second annual survey was completed in September CTFP intends to use the results to shape and refine the program. Annual surveys will be conducted for further assessment and benchmarking of program outcomes. E. KEY PROGRAM ACCOMPLISHMENTS In FY08, CTFP enabled DoD to focus attention on a key partners. o CTFP worked with USSOUTHCOM to develop and provide two targeted seminars in Colombia that respond to CbT capacity-building requirements. The Center for Civil- Military Relations (CCMR) conducted a Civil-Military Response to Terrorism seminar for a group of LTCs attending the Colombian Defense College. The seminar focused on strategic aspects of combating terrorism. CCMR also conducted a Civil-Military Relations Net Assessment seminar at the Colombian War College. This event involved the instruction of strategic planning and operations, otherwise known as Net Assessment. Both events were custom-built for Colombia to give participants the opportunity to discuss the issues important to their region. 9

14 o The CTFP identified multiple capacity-buildng requirements and responded by coordinating multiple DoD efforts with Morocco. First, in February, the Joint Special Operations University (JSOU) conducted a Special Operations and Combating Terrorism seminar in Rabat. Aproximately 20 participants included representatives from the Ministry of Interior, Gendarmerie, National Security Directorate, and the Army. In July, the Defense Institute for International Legal Studies (DIILS) conducted an asessment for a Legal Aspects of Combating Terrorism seminar. The seminar will focus on Combating Radicalization and Terrorist Recruitment and is scheduled for FY09 The CTFP focused regional attention on critical challenges. o In September 2008, CTFP funded an intense, one-week Intelligence in Combating Terrorism course in Croatia. The purpose of the seminar was to train Croatian, Slovenian, Slovakian, and Hungarian security officials to analyze terrorist and other sub-national threats in the contemporary operating environment. The instructors from the U.S. Intelligence School helped the students examine terrorist organization structures, state support to terrorist groups, terrorist strategy and tactics, terrorist threat assessment for military installations and deploying units, and terrorist use of weapons of mass destruction. o In August 2008, the USPACOM Special Operations Command conducted a South Asia Pacific Regional Approach to Combating Terrorism seminar in Nepal. The objective of the event was to bring together professionals tasked with the missions of Counter- Terrorism, Counter-Insurgency, and Terrorist Financing and Financial Crime in the South Asia region to discuss the ways ahead for regional stability and for solutions through a multi-lateral and interagency approach. Participants included officials from Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Maldives. o In April 2008, CTFP funded a Defense Institute for International Legal Studies (DILLS) "Border Security and Combating Terrorism" regional training event in Guinea. Military, police, and government participants from Guinea, Benin, Cote d'ivoire, Burkina Faso, Senegal and Togo met for five days of facilitated discussions and presentations to explain key legal and related non-legal considerations for a nation to address when implementing efforts to combat terrorism and enhance border security. The event assisted participating nations in understanding how their nation's capabilities can be integrated into a cooperative regional and international framework to address these security challenges. o In June 2008, CTFP funded a Center for Civil Military Relations (CCMR) "Managing the Consequences of Terrorism" regional training event in Ukraine. Civilian Security Officials, Military, and government participants from Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Georgia, Hungary, Lithuania, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, and Turkey met for five days of facilitated discussions and case studies to explore possible government actions to deal with the consequences of terrorist acts. During the week, each country presented their national strategies which led to significant sharing of experiences and challenges. Notably, many participants emphasized the need of 10

15 increased inter-agency and regional cooperation in dealing with the threat and consequences of terrorism. The CTFP continued to sustain relationships with graduates who have influence. o A Nepalese 2005 graduate of CTFP s International Counterterrorism Fellows Program at NDU was promoted to Commander of the United Nations Mission in Congo s Ituri Brigade on January 21, The brigade works in conjunction with the Armed Forces of the Democratic Republic of Congo (FARDC) and is responsible for security operations in the Ituri region of Congo. o A 2007 Czech Republic graduate of the CTFP-funded Special Operations Program at NPS is now the Commander of the Czech Special Forces Center and Deputy Group Commander for a Czech Special Forces (SF) group currently preparing for its 3 rd rotation in Afghanistan. He is considered a leading subject matter expert in the Czech Republic on special operations and Czech participation in operations abroad and regularly represents his country at international conferences and meetings. He also attended the June CTFP continuing education event in Germany. o A 2007 Malaysian graduate of CTFP s International Combating Terrorism (CT) Fellows program at NDU is now commanding the Malcon West 1 contingent as part of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL). In FY08, the CTFP reinforced its impact on individuals and strengthened the global CbT community through continuing education. o In June 2007, CTFP held a week-long continuing education event in conjunction with the U.S. NDU and the Thai National Defense College in Thailand. The event brought together 34 CT officials from the U.S. Pacific Command (USPACOM) region who had graduated from the International Counterterrorism Fellows program at NDU between 2003 and During the event, NDU provided updates on the latest CT developments, and the USPACOM CT officials provided area of responsibility (AOR) updates on terrorist situations. Additionally, alumni country presentations included examples of how the education and training they received, from the CTFP-funded course, has been applied in their countries CT programs. o CTFP also held a continuing education event in June 2008 in conjunction with the NPS in Germany. The event was held in Germany and brought together 17 alumni from the NPS Special Operations Master s degree program. Although smaller than the Thailand event, the size allowed for a lively discussion on current CbT topics, policies, and theories, as well as suggestions for strengthening the CbT network. 11

16 F. PROGRAM IMPROVEMENT INITIATIVES As the CTFP expands and evolves, DoD is continually pursuing initiatives to improve and enhance the program. UPDATES ON FY08 INITIATIVES Maintaining and Honing Combating Terrorism Focus: In FY08, CTFP reviewed and updated its list of recommended courses that the COCOMs can use when developing CTFPfunded engagement strategies. The recommended courses contain content that meet the standards of the CTFP for the strategic and operational levels and for combating terrorism through interagency coordination. Continuing Education: As noted in Section D, Program Accomplishments, CTFP successfully conducted two continuing education events in FY08 for NDU and NPS CTFP alumni. The events were the first in a continuing series of activities that CTFP is planning to re-engage alumni, strengthen the global CbT community, and reinforce the initial education provided. In FY09 CTFP is working with the short and long course programs to conduct additional continuing education events. These events will be a strategic combination of school-based and regional education seminars, followed up by virtual discussion groups. Coordination with State Department on Leahy Vetting: CTFP continues to maintain a close working relationship on human rights vetting and coordination with the Political Military Bureau (PM) at the U.S. Department of States (DOS); every CTFP participant must pass human rights vetting to be accepted. In FY08, CTFP worked together with the PM to ensure that the COCOMs received the latest information DOS on Leahy vetting changes, including the establishment of fast track countries. NEW INITIATIVES FOR FY09 Combating Terrorism Capability Assessments: In FY09, CTFP will work with CCMR and other stakeholders to develop a standardized framework to assess partner nation CbT capacity, capabilities, and identify institutional capacity shortfalls. This will enable the program to further tailor programs and coordinate multiple efforts in a building-block approach. To date, CTFP has relied on larger assessments that include CT as one component. This assessment framework will focus on requirements that characterize a country s institutional capacity to combat terrorism; including the full range of components, from terrorist threat consensus at the national leadership level to effective plans, organizations, structures, operational strategies, tools, and resources. Countering Violent Extremism Activities: In cooperation with DoD s Support to Public Diplomacy and the DOS Office of the Coordinator for Counterterrorism (S/CT), CTFP is developing a set of activities to enable partners to counter violent extremism. These activities will both draw on previous work completed by the DoD Regional Centers, and bring in S/CT s functional area expertise and contacts. 12

17 New Course on CbT Legal Framework: In FY09, CTFP is funding the development of a new interagency workshop designed to identify gaps in a country's legal framework for combating terrorism, and to develop strategies to close those gaps. The workshop will facilitate the implementation of legislation and interagency processes necessary to combat terrorism, terrorist financing, and money laundering effectively within a country. The workshop will be led by the Defense Institute of International Legal Studies, and will draw heavily on experts from the Department of Justice s CT Division, the DOS Bureau of Law Enforcement, and the Department of Defense Office of General Counsel. The first iteration of the event is scheduled to occur in late FY09 or early FY10. 13

18 G. SUMMARY CTFP is a valuable tool in the global fight against terrorism and fills a crucial void in U.S. efforts to provide targeted international combating terrorism education and training. The close relationship between OSD and the COCOMS has turned the program into a strategic tool in the war on terrorism that effectively supports the efforts of the COCOMs in achieving their objectives through flexible, targeted international partner education and training. Building on previous efforts, the CTFP made significant strides during FY08 to develop and reinforce the combating terrorism capabilities of our partner nations, and to strengthen a global network of combating terrorism experts committed to the fight against violent extremism and their proponents. Senior DoD and DOS officials consistently note the value of a global CTFP network, and derive benefit through active participation in CTFP activities or by accessing the network to gain a better understanding of partner perceptions and best practices. CTFP s newest survey results show that CTFP-educated combating terrorism experts are sharing their knowledge with colleagues and acting on new inspiration to enable partner nations to be more collaborative and more effective partners. 14
