Conflict mitigation and development vision approaches and achievements

January 2010

Independently of the type and amplitude of the conflict, it is commonly accepted that countries suffering from instability or conflict situations enter into a spiraling phase of de-development, which directly undermines development processes and peacebuilding initiatives. Indeed, the governance deficit affecting countries suffering from instability and/or conflict can only be addressed through the induction of development initiatives promoting the rule of law and establishing an overall environment conducive of socio-economic revival. Peace and stability have become an increasingly necessary condition for the achievement of sustainable human development and the full realization of human opportunities and potential, including the attainment of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
