About SFASID
Established in 1993, on the heels of the Cold War, spurred on by the humanitarian crisis in Somalia and the Balkans, the Peacekeeping Institute (PKI) served as a response to the evolution of conflict, the necessity for “military operations other than war,” and the need for doctrine to help deliver a better peace. Since its inception, PKSOI has grown in both size and outreach.
Today, the U.S. Army Security Force Assistance & Stability Integration Directorate (SFASID, formerly PKSOI) develops, integrates, and assesses joint, intergovernmental, and multinational peace and stability capabilities to achieve national objectives across the competition continuum.
We specialize in peace operations, security sector reform, governance, rule of law, economic stabilization, and humanitarian assistance and contribute to policy, concepts, doctrine, education, training, and exercises.
We execute across four lines of effort to ensure DoW, USG, and key partner peace and stability capabilities are continually improved, ready to meet tomorrow’s challenges, and fully deliver in support of national objectives.
As the U.S. Joint Proponent for Peacekeeping and Stability Operations, and a NATO Partner Training and Education Center, we assist in the development and delivery of a variety of multi-modal training opportunities. We offer focused and expertly delivered instruction to U.S. Army warfighters, the Joint Force and our NATO allies to ensure a common framework and comprehensive understandings of these most critical operations through the following:
