Statement by K.Y. Amoako, Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa (UN-ECA) at the meeting on Economic and Social Governance Dimension of Linking Emergencies to Human and Social Development. Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that, a focus on meeting the requirements of a capable state therefore calls for comprehensive efforts to end ongoing conflicts, prevent new ones, and rebuild countries that have been in conflict. We need a response that aims to break the artificial distinctions between military interventions, peacekeeping, peace building, post-conflict resolution and reconstruction. The idea is to make recommendations for a greater role of NGOs in these instances that supports the building of an effective state, rather than competing with it. This proposed UN Peace building Commission would serve to fill what the panel has found to be a key institutional gap: there is currently no place in the UN system explicitly designed to avoid State collapse and the slide to war or to assist countries in their transition from war to peace.
