Findings from the Forum on Homeland Security After the Bush Administration: Next Steps in Building Unity of Effort
Abstract
This is an article from the June 2008 [v.4 no.2] edition of the Homeland Security Affairs Journal. This article provides an overview of the Forum held at Stanford University's Center for International Security and Cooperation [CISAC] on February 12, 2008. More specifically, CISAC convened a forum of government and private sector leaders in homeland security to propose specific, practical steps that the next administration can take to strengthen collaboration in homeland security. This report summarizes their recommendations and proposes a number of structural changes within DHS [Department of Homeland Security] to provide for better integration across agency lines and help overcome the agency 'stovepiping' that has plagued DHS since its inception. The report also examines how the next administration can restructure DHS to transform state and local collaboration into a sustained, department-wide priority.
