CSBMs

are not only associated with the military. Ideally they should 

also encompass other fields including:            law enforcement 

economics, 

diplomacy, 

policymaking, etc.

These efforts help to identify the actions undertaken by the nations 

and communities that help to improve security awareness.

CARICOM, CFAC and other organizations have served 

as shining examples in this regard.

The greatest success has been achieved in 

disseminating a framework of positive perceptions 

associated with the bilateral, multilateral or regional 

measures implemented by nations . . .CSBM REPORTS PROVIDE THIS FRAMEWORK.
