New initiative examines future of Kirkuk referendum

Some of our intrepid DG colleagues have have undertaken a tremendous new project: the brand new Center for Kirkuk Referendum Options. A collaborative initiative of the Center for Democracy and Society/DG program, the CKRO addresses key questions about the Kirkuk referendum and the national constitutional and political issues it brings up for Iraq. This is your one-stop shop for background reading on the issue, including the comprehensive policy paper written collaboratively by Jeff Fischer‘s fall 2010 electoral policy class, among additional resources.

Kudos to Jeff and the DG students who made the CKRO a reality–looking forward to seeing its future research and work towards someday achieving a free and fair referendum in Kirkuk.
