Our new report, ‘Fusion Doctrine in Five Steps: Lessons from remote warfare in Africa’, is out now!

In this report we set out how the @GOVUK’s ambition to deliver a whole-of-government approach through Fusion Doctrine can be achieved in #5StepsToFusion (Thread 1/7)
Building on previous efforts, Fusion Doctrine is the latest iteration of @GOVUK's efforts to “strengthen [the UK government’s] collective approach to national security” when responding to crises overseas #5StepsToFusion (2/7)
In the context of Fusion Doctrine and broader commitments to a more consolidated foreign policy, Theresa May travelled to Cape Town in August 2018, where she outlined 5 strategic priorities for the African continent #5StepsToFusion (3/7)
To understand the impact of these commitments on the ground, we conducted field research in Mali and Kenya, hosted roundtables and held interviews in London with world-leading experts, including local experts from the Sahel and Horn of Africa. #5StepsToFusion (4/7)
Our research revealed that significant barriers to effective fusion remain, especially where the UK engages in low-intensity remote warfare #5StepsToFusion (5/7)
As Fusion Doctrine is rolled out, it could address some of these enduring challenges. However, to achieve this, Fusion Doctrine must be implemented at all levels of engagement. As such, we suggest a five-step approach to making Fusion Doctrine work #5StepsToFusion (6/7)
