Reinforcing Public Service Delivery in Libya (Medical Rehabilitation)

01.02.2014 - 31.12.2016

After the Kaddafi era, establishing public confidence in public service delivery is a key challenge in Libya. The project leverages Switzerland’s medical reputation to improve the quality of rehabilitation services in two pilot hospitals in and around Tripoli. Effective long-term treatment for pain, psychological distress and disability will benefit injured warriors as well as civilians (women and children in particular) affected by war or accidents. It is implemented in collaboration with the Ministry of Health with a view to a subsequent Libyan-led scaling-up.

La Svizzera mette a disposizione la propria competenza, riconosciuta a livello internazionale, in materia di riforma del settore della sicurezza

01.11.2011 - 31.12.2016

Le rivolte popolari che hanno scosso il Nord Africa a inizio 2011 miravano a colpire anche le forze di sicurezza che per decenni avevano appoggiato i regimi dittatoriali in Egitto, Libia e Tunisia. Per agevolare la transizione democratica è quindi prioritario riformare le forze armate, ossia esercito, polizia e servizi di sicurezza. In questo campo la Svizzera dispone di competenze riconosciute a livello internazionale grazie al Centro per il controllo democratico delle forze armate (DCAF) con sede a Ginevra. Dal 2011 il centro assiste in modo rapido ed efficace i Paesi partner che ne fanno richiesta nel processo di riforma del settore della sicurezza. Nonostante le numerose affinità, le sfide da cogliere in Tunisia, Marocco, Libia ed Egitto sono molto diverse.
