The Transparency International Defence and Security Programme plans to establish a global index to measure levels of integrity and corruption in national defence and security establishments. The integrity scores provided by this metric will be informed by answers to a detailed questionnaire (of 77 questions) completed by Country Assessors who can draw upon a wide range of sources to score each question, including: interviews with government officials, interviews with academic experts, publicly available documents, and media sources. The output will be peer reviewed by two fellow experts, and then considered by an Assessment Review panel within TI. We are looking for suitably qualified and motivated experts to work with us as Country Assessors and Peer Reviewers for the 49 countries we now plan to assess. A qualified Country Assessor will fit the following profile: A proven researcher with experience conducting original fieldwork projects. We would prefer our country assessors to have experience studying or operating within the field of defence and security, or anti-corruption, or both. We would consider applicants with a more general background, in the rule of law or governance of the chosen country if they have sufficient research experience. Country assessors may or may not be working in the country of analysis, though they must be independent of the government and have a strong command of both English and the language of the country they are to assess. Please see the link for more details of the project and application procedure.
