Feature Description:
Listen to this USIP event discussion on reconstruction zones as a peacebuilding tool.
Rebuilding economies after protracted chaos or violent conflict requires careful thought and political courage. By creating dynamic and inclusive growth, reconstruction zones could help countries stand on their own feet, consolidate peace, and overcome the unsustainable aid dependency to which they have grown accustomed. This event examined the validity of this approach, using Afghanistan and Pakistan as case studies.
