Source: Rahul Chandran, Bruce Jones and Natasha Smith with Yoshino Funaki and Gigja Sorensen, New York University Center on International Cooperation (CIC)This paper analyzes progress and gaps in international responses and capabilities to mobilize support for early recovery after conflict and crisis. The main issues covered include: early recovery; international coordination; national capacity and strategic, capacity, and funding gaps; and case studies of countries such as Sierra Leone, Sudan, and Afghanistan. The authors argue that there are three primary weaknesses in international performance in early recovery: the strategic gap, financing gaps, and several capacity gaps. The authors conclude that improvements in the international capacity to respond to the needs of early recovery will depend on addressing all three key gaps within national political contexts.
Source: Erin McCandless, Institute for Security Studies (ISS)This paper examines the efforts, challenges, and opportunities for enhancing the coherence and effectiveness of post-conflict peacebuilding practice by the United Nations actors on the ground, the UN peacebuilding architecture, and the government of Liberia.

The author argues that integrated, strategic processes are key to improving coordinated action between international and national actors and achieving sustainable peace. The paper concludes with specific policy recommendations for improving peacebuilding practice, as well as a call for further research and knowledge sharing regarding capacity and coordination strategies for post-conflict peacebuilding.
