International institutions, aid effectiveness and peacebuilding

This study produced three country “insights” papers and a synthesis report of cross-case findings. It identifies the key peacebuilding priorities in three countries – Burundi, Liberia and Nepal – and explores how the two main international institutions engaged there, the UN and the World Bank, have sought to address them.

The analysis and recommendations presented here inform the ongoing work of International Alert’s International Institutions Programme, which works to increase understanding of institutional obstacles to, as well as opportunities for, more effective peacebuilding in fragile and conflict-affected countries.
