3 PREFACE 1. As the international security environment constantly changes, NATO faces new challenges. Since the fall of the Berlin wall, NATO forces operating around the world have encountered asymmetric threats such as terrorism, insurgency, piracy and other criminal activities. The ability to train and develop local forces 1 in crisis zones" 2 (ref. N) is one of the contributions to improve effectiveness across the crisis management spectrum (Ref. A and B), so that local authorities are able as quickly as possible to maintain security without international assistance (Ref. N). 2. The Security Force Assistance (SFA 3 ) Concept (Ref. N) is included in broader strategies such as Defence and related Security Capacity Building (DCB) Initiative (Ref. C), which was launched during the Wales Summit in 2014 (Ref. D). It enhances the Alliance s role in projecting stability by supporting related activities as part of a 360 degree approach, in accordance with the Warsaw Summit Communique (Ref. E). SFA contributes to a comprehensive approach, as laid out in the Comprehensive Approach Action Plan (Ref. F). 3. The SFA Concept has been clearly recognized and acknowledged by NATO. The definition of SFA in the related Doctrine has been established as all NATO activities that develop and improve or directly support the development of local forces and their associated institution (Ref. G). Therefore SFA encompasses all activities aimed at training and developing local forces. 4. SFA, although having a military focus, needs to be conducted in a comprehensive context observing all its imperatives that are essential to fulfil the mandate (e.g. political primacy, legitimacy, understanding, - Ref. G). SFA includes all NATO activities that develop and improve, or directly support, the development of non- NATO local forces, excluding indigenous police and their associated institutions in crisis zones. The inclusion of SFA assets in the overall security plan not only allows Joint Forces to concentrate on deterring spoiling behaviour, but also builds the confidence of the local population. The responsibility for national security will be transferred to the Governmental organisations and leadership as soon as possible, even if SFA assets continue to support the development of the Security Sector Reform process. 5. The NATO SFA Centre of Excellence (COE) will support cooperation and interoperability by providing a hub of expertise for the benefit of the Alliance, 1 For the purpose of this document, local forces will: refer to indigenous, non-nato military security forces as defined by IMSM (Ref. U), except non-legitimized armed groups within crisis zones as defined by MCM NATO Security Force Assistance Concept, dated 28 March 2014 (Ref. N); not refer to SP activities as defined by AJP-3.22, Allied Joint Doctrine for Stability Policing, Edition A Version 1, July 2016 (Ref. H); not refer to MP activities, as defined by AJP , Allied Joint Doctrine for Military Police, Edition 2009 (Ref. V). 2 refer to geographical area where a NAC/approved NATO operation/mission is executed as defined by MCM NATO Security Force Assistance Concept, (Ref. N). 3 It should be noted that SFA in the context of Strategic Foresight Analysis is a completely other matter and should not be confused with Security Force Assistance. 3

4 NATO Nations and NATO partners, thus ensuring a coherent joint approach based on contributions from all participants. AIM 6. The aim of this document is to define the NATO SFA COE Concept, including basic guidelines of the NATO SFA COE establishment and its general operational arrangements. SCOPE OF THE DOCUMENT 7. The scope of this document is to detail the fundamental aspects of the NATO SFA COE establishment and functioning, as follows: a) Guiding Principles b) Operational Context c) Operational Requirements d) Vision e) Mission f) Goals g) Functions and Activities h) Location i) Organisation j) Command Relationships k) Functional Relationships l) Responsibilities m) Amendments n) Annexes: A: Definitions B: NATO SFA COE proposed Organisational Chart C: NATO SFA COE proposed Manning Table D: Record of Changes. GUIDING PRINCIPLES 8. In accordance with References F, G and R the following principles will be applied for the establishment and functioning of the NATO SFA COE: a) Participation in NATO SFA COE s activities is open to all NATO Nations. b) Access by partners, other nations and international organizations (such as the EU) to the NATO SFA COE s products and services is the responsibility of 4

5 Sponsoring Nations (SNs) through the Steering Committee (SC), taking into account NATO standards and security requirements, as well as relevant Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) and Technical Arrangements (TAs); c) Establishing, NATO funding and manning of the NATO SFA COE will be joint multinational and will encourage broad cooperation with major institutions and organisations in both military and non-military fields, at National and Multinational level. In principle the NATO SFA COE will not receive NATO common funding, in accordance with NATO policies; d) Added value and no duplication: the NATO SFA COE will not duplicate assets and resources, nor compete with activities and capabilities that already exist in NATO Command Arrangements (NCA) or the NATO COE Network (Ref. R). Its goal is to provide support and tangible improvements to the Alliance, NATO Nations and NATO Partner capabilities, thereby adding value, by combining efforts, increasing interoperability, standardization and effectiveness in support of capability development in the SFA area. The NATO SFA COE activities will be consistent with NATO programmes and efforts; e) NATO SFA COE support to operations: NATO SFA COE will provide best practices and usage of available resources and infrastructure, in close cooperation with national and international, military and civilian entities and experts, by serving as a focal point to a SFA Community of Interest (CoI); f) Resources: the NATO SFA COE infrastructure, administrative and support costs will be provided by the Framework Nation (FN). Operating and maintenance costs will be covered by all SNs according to the Operational MOU; g) Assessment criteria: the NATO SFA COE will be assessed by Headquarters Supreme Allied Command Transformation (HQ SACT) based on the Military Committee (MC) approved Criteria (Ref. I) for accreditation as a NATO COE; h) Status: The NATO SFA COE and its personnel may be granted the status under Article 14 of the Paris Protocol (Ref. L), together with Supplementary Agreement thereto, upon accreditation by the MC and once activated by the NAC as a NATO military Body in accordance with CM(69)22 (Ref. K); i) NATO Standards: NATO SFA COE will conform to NATO policy, procedures, doctrine and standards. It will suggest improvements and propose amendments to policy, doctrine, procedures and standards for the subsequent endorsement by SACT and/or relevant NATO military authorities; j) Clear relationship: NATO SFA COE Operational and Functional MOUs will establish clear relationships between the FN, other SNs and HQ SACT. TAs will establish NATO SFA COE relations with Contributing Partners (CPs), other COEs, academia and other national and international organizations. The NATO SFA COE will also establish contacts and cooperation with business and industry as appropriate; k) Personnel: personnel assignments to NATO SFA COE will not be at the expense of national NATO Command Structure Peacetime Establishment responsibilities. OPERATIONAL CONTEXT 9. The Operational Context of the NATO SFA COE will be a set of unified actions by the joint, interagency, intergovernmental and multinational community to generate, 5

6 employ, sustain and assist Host Nation or local forces in support of a legitimate authority. SFA is a broad framework focused on assisting local forces in support of Alliance interests regardless of the operational environment. 10. SFA can be conducted across the spectrum of crisis response scenarios and threat levels. This assistance could focus on improving the security forces of a host nation that is currently under no immediate threat, on paramilitary forces to counter an insurgency, or on advising local forces in major combat operations against an external threat. 11. SFA can occur as part of any operational themes: peacetime limited engagement, limited intervention, peace operations, irregular warfare and major combat operations. SFA often occurs during peacetime military engagement, peace operations, and irregular warfare. SFA involving paramilitary forces will often be limited to the irregular warfare operational theme, although paramilitary forces should eventually be absorbed, disbanded or maintained in a long-term relationship with special operations forces. 12. SFA target audience is the local forces of a partner/hosting nation. In this context SFA is designed to render the aforementioned forces capable of securing their own national territories and boundaries autonomously. The SFA capable units will not replace the local forces. Doctrinally SFA capability is generated and tailored to integrate others included in Defense and related Capacity Building (DCB) set. 13. While Army units are important contributors, SFA is part of an overall and joint effort, contributing to the comprehensive approach. This effort includes close collaboration between military and civilian, joint and multinational forces. The Host Nation or regional security Organization is the key actor within this joint effort. It is vital that SFA is based on an objective, continuous assessment 4 that examines cultural awareness, organization, training, equipment, rebuilding, and advising of the forces involved. OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS 14. To help improve effectiveness of NATO Nations and partners, a SFA-related NATO COE is needed: a) to support building enhanced capabilities in support of a comprehensive approach, information sharing, interoperability, better comprehension 5 and lead subject matter expertise in the field of SFA; b) to research, evaluate, develop and test through experimentation NATO s and Nations SFA concepts, doctrines and other relevant strategic documents; c) to support the development of appropriate SFA standards and capabilities, using the analysis and lessons learned from NATO-led, international or national operations, NATO policy and standards; 4 The purpose of assessment is to provide an evaluation of activities and progress towards creating effects, achieving objectives and attaining the end state as defined by the AJP-3.16 Allied Joint Doctrine for Security Force Assistance, Edition A Version 1, dated 17 May 2016 (Ref. G). 5 Understanding is the perception and interpretation of a particular situation to provide the context, insight and foresight required for effective decision making (Ref. G). 6

7 d) to train military and civilian personnel, on all aspects of SFA issues and activities in operations. 15. In order to support the global response of NATO and Nations to SFA, NATO SFA COE: a) will apply and support the enhancement and implementation of NATO policy, doctrine and operational understanding of SFA; b) will provide a hub for development and management of common and shared knowledge and expertise for SFA; c) will serve as a focal point for analysis, lessons learned, as well as information, knowledge and expertise; d) will provide expertise and training on SFA. VISION 16. NATO SFA COE is to be an internationally recognized focal point to expand capabilities of NATO, Nations and other partners by providing comprehensive expertise and support in the area of SFA. MISSION 17. The mission of the NATO SFA COE is: a) to improve effectiveness of the Alliance in promoting stability and reconstruction efforts for conflict and post-conflict scenarios; b) to provide an unique capability to Alliance, NATO Nations and NATO Partners in the field of SFA. GOALS 18. The goals of the NATO SFA COE are: a) to be NATO s hub of expertise in SFA and the focal point for the CoI; b) to enable close cooperation between Alliance, NATO Nations and NATO Partner and other partners within the agreed frameworks, in the development of an international collaborative partnership approach to the building of SFA capabilities. This requires the effective application of both military and nonmilitary means and the SFA principles that are the guidance for promoting a positive perception within the local population and the International Communty to the success of the mission 6 ; c) to apply an overall and joint approach to SFA capacity building in support of Alliance, NATO Nations and NATO Partners, by: 6 Such as Strategic Communication, Understanding (Ref. N). 7
