The World Bank's Experience with Post-Conflict Reconstruction

Clearing landmines, rehabilitating and integrating of excombatants, rebuilding the infrastructure, coordinating aid sources—these are just some of the issues confronting the Bank in post-conflict reconstruction. The explosion of civil conflicts in the post-Cold War world has tested the World Bank's ability to address unprecedented devastation of human and social capital.

This study covers post-conflict reconstruction in nine countries, assessing relevant, recent Bank experience. It also presents case-studies for ongoing and future operations, which analyze:

1. the Bank's main strengths or comparative advantages;
2. its partnership with other donors, international organizations, and NGOs;
3. its role in reconstruction strategy and damage and needs assessment;
4. its role in rebuilding the economy and institutions of governance;
5. its management of resources and processes;
6. implications for monitoring and evaluation.
