| ISE has now applied its analysis to a wide range of countries across
the globe, including Afghanistan, southern Sudan, Nepal, Kosovo,
Lebanon, Haiti and Liberia. The Institute provides advice to
policymakers on issues such as decision-making, asset-mapping, the
sequencing of reform, leadership skills, outlining critical tasks, and
visioning; and generates ideas on reforms to improve governance,
accountability, development programming, and donor coordination.
ISE supports the creation of individually designed, contextually sensitive
country strategies that outline a comprehensive approach to a given
country's state-building processes. The ISE team has also documented a
series of successful state transitions, ranging from Singapore and
Spain to Ireland, the American South and European Accession countries
to understand how positive aspects of these processes can be fed into
contemporary state-building efforts.
