Strategic Support Group
Providing strategic guidance and tailored support to enhance institutional performance, policy design, and decision-making processes.
Regional Security and Risk Analysis
Nawa’s agile institutional backbone ensures operational efficiency and long-term sustainability. The group leads financial and administrative governance, institutional communications, partnership and resource mobilisation, monitoring and evaluation, and knowledge management.
Regional Security and Risk Analysis
The institution’s research and foresight arm produces analyses and applied knowledge that help decision-makers read the regional landscape, assess risks, and formulate future scenarios.
This group functions as a strategic operations room within Nawa. It monitors the regional landscape and interprets it using advanced analytical tools. It is not a traditional research unit, but rather a foresight-oriented thinking center that connects information flows, in-depth analysis, and field practice.
The group develops influence maps for conflict parties in the Middle East, the African vicinity, and related maritime corridors. Through this, it can formulate future scenarios that support early and effective responses. In doing so, it is comparable to major international think tanks, with the added advantage of being directly connected to the regional reality.
