This paper explores how the private
sector can positively contribute to peace-building and
conflict prevention, and how that positive private sector
role can be supported and enhanced. The starting premise
recognizes that the private sector exists in all conflict
situations and has the potential to both exacerbate and
ameliorate conflict, the outcome of which can be greatly
affected by appropriate support from external partners. It
also posits that a thriving, legal, private sector is
essential to development and peace, as it provides
livelihoods and growth, while delivering revenue streams in
the form of taxes so governments can provide services to
their citizens. It also posits that a thriving, legal,
private sector is essential to development and peace, as it
provides livelihoods and growth, while delivering revenue
streams in the form of taxes so governments can provide
services to their citizens. This paper discusses and
analyzes the role of the private sector in fragile and
conflict-affected states, beginning with its role in the
conflicts themselves, and in the immediate peace-building
and longer-term reconstruction and development phases. The
paper acknowledges that the topic of private sector
development cuts across political, governance, and security
dimensions, as well as a broad range of development themes.
It also considers international efforts to support the
private sector in fragile and conflict affected settings to
date, identifying gaps and making recommendations to address
them. The paper does not focus on detailed operational
issues or the use of various reform tools. |
