Increase information available on <strong>communities</strong>’ needsSecurity providers must have access <strong>to</strong> accurate information on local security issues <strong>to</strong> beable <strong>to</strong> ensure an appropriate response. While security ac<strong>to</strong>rs tend <strong>to</strong> have information onthe problems <strong>communities</strong>’ face, it is also important that they understand how this affects<strong>communities</strong>’ perceptions of security, in order <strong>to</strong> <strong>respond</strong> <strong>to</strong> those problems that mostundermine <strong>communities</strong>’ feelings of safety and stability. Accordingly, <strong>Saferworld</strong> and theAssociation of South Ossetian Women intend <strong>to</strong> conduct in-depth research among local<strong>communities</strong> in order <strong>to</strong> measure their perceptions of security. This research will be sharedwith <strong>communities</strong> and security ac<strong>to</strong>rs <strong>to</strong> encourage discussions about how best <strong>to</strong> <strong>respond</strong><strong>to</strong> these problems.
