Countries emerging from conflict : lessons on partnership in post-conflict reconstruction, rehabilitation and rintegration
Résumé
This paper examines the important role that government, private sector and civil society partnerships play in rebuilding countries emerging from conflict in Africa. It argues that strategic partnership forged between government, private sector and civil society are critical to successful post-conflict reconstruction in order to prevent recidivism to violent conflict. Since the end of the Cold War, nearly half of African countries have experienced some type of conflict, most of it in the very low-income ones.
