Summary

Coordinated by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, this project implemented by the OSCE Secretariat focuses on OSCE’s Confidence Building Measure (CBM) number 8 in order to promote policy and technical Points of Contact amongst OSCE Member States.

Details

Aim

This project aims at promoting the operationalization of the CBM 8 network of policy and technical Points of Contact (PoCs) by enhancing its functioning, both as a crisis communication network, and as a platform for co-operation.

Outcomes

In order to accomplish this objective, the project will focus on strengthening the network’s functioning in three ways:

1) Increasing confidence, interactions and co-operation between PoCs through two annual cyber/ICT security expert meetings.

2) Enhancing transparency between non-like-minded States through a series of bilateral country visits for PoCs, in line with previous OSCE Confidence- and Security-Building Measures (CSBMs) good practices.

3) Improving the quality and relevance of the crisis communication mechanism by increasing the frequency and scope of Communication Checks (CommChecks) with PoCs
