A Top to Bottom Redesign to Make Our Work More Accessible and Empower Users
Today the Security Assistance Monitor (SAM) launches a brand new website, designed to make SAM’s research, data, and analysis moire easily accessible to advocates, academics, policymakers, and civil society.
The updated website design focuses on a seamless user experience, especially when it comes to engaging with SAM’s three databases – Security Sector Assistance, Arms Sales, Foreign Military Training. This includes user guides that walk visitors step by step on how to access, refine, and analyze the data they are looking for.
In addition, the new website allows SAM to direct greater attention to its research products. Along with homepage spotlights, new pages dedicated to publications and blogs are all easily searchable and filterable based on a broad range of tags and countries.
SAM has always strived to be a valuable resource for those seeking to understand the scale, scope, and impact of U.S. arms transfers and security assistance worldwide. This new website represents a renewed commitment to that mission. Come see what’s new at securityassistance.org.
