  abstract: Different quality awards and excellence models have been developed in the past decades which include ISO, Deming Prize, Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, and European Foundation Quality Management. These models are successfully applied in the developed countries rather than fragile countries. Geographically, economically, socially and politically fragile countries are different from developed countries. Fragility is generally a combination of poverty, conflict, and instability.

Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) states that characteristics of a fragile state are the combination of weak governance, ineffective national institutions, armed groups, extreme inequalities of income and education, weak rule of law, low government legitimacy, and high corruption. The purpose of this study is to develop a performance measurement model applicable for universities in fragile countries. Relative and Absolute measurement of AHP method have been applied in the study. To seek an answer to the first research question “what are the criteria and sub-criteria that should be included in the model to measure the performance of universities in the fragile countries?” the researcher interviewed 30 experts from eleven universities in top four fragile countries namely, Somalia, Afghanistan, Sudan, and Chad. To answer the second research question “What are the priorities of the criteria and sub-criteria to be included in the model?” 36 items questionnaire were distributed to collect data through “pairwise comparison matrix”. Data were collected from 55 respondents belonging to20 universities in top four fragile countries. To answer the third research question, “What is the performance level of universities in Somalia as a fragile country?”, universities were evalu…
