The Pakistan Security Research Unit (PSRU) was established in the Department of Peace Studies at the University of Bradford, UK, in March 2007. It serves as an independent portal and neutral platform for interdisciplinary research on all aspects of Pakistani security, dealing with Pakistan's impact on regional and global security, internal security issues within Pakistan, and the interplay of the two. PSRU provides information about, and critical analysis of, Pakistani security with particular emphasis on extremism/terrorism, nuclear weapons issues, and the internal stability and cohesion of the state. PSRU is intended as a resource for anyone interested in the security of Pakistan and provides:
- Briefing papers;
- Reports;
- Datasets;
- Consultancy;
- Academic, institutional and media links;
- An open space for those working for positive change in Pakistan and for those currently without a voice.
PSRU welcomes collaboration from individuals, groups and organisations, which share our broad objectives. Please contact us at psru@bradford.ac.uk
