Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations

Top

The United States Department of State announced the creation of the Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations on November 22, 2011.

The bureau's mission is to advance U.S. national security by driving integrated, civilian-led efforts to prevent, respond to, and stabilize crises in priority states, setting conditions for long-term peace. The bureau emphasizes sustainable solutions guided by local dynamics and actors, and promotes unity of effort, the strategic use of scarce resources, and burden-sharing with international partners. This comprehensive approach will help the State Department anticipate and adapt to 21st century security challenges, while supporting America’s leadership in emerging crises.[1]

The Office of the Coordinator for Reconstruction and Stabilization, which was established in law, will be integrated with the new Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations.[2]
