The Challenge
During the 1990s, over one-third of the world’s countries were affected by civil conflicts. Such conflicts have exacted an enormous human cost, causing hundreds of thousands of deaths, especially among civilians, and generating millions of refugees and asylum seekers worldwide. Conflicts destroy human and physical capital, deter investment, redirect essential resources to military uses, and derail or delay normal economic growth and development. Countries that have experienced civil war are at much greater risk of regressing into conflict, which can entrench conditions of poverty and worsen social conditions, severely limit access to the benefits of the global economy, and permanently marginalize entire populations. With violent conflict affecting approximately 60% of the countries in which it operates, USAID is adapting to this new environment in order to improve the effectiveness of U.S. assistance abroad.

Other Major Donors:
Bilateral: CMM has maintained a healthy consultation with other donors active in the area of conflict through participation in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s Development Assistance Committee Network on Conflict Prevention and Development Cooperation (CPDC). CMM’s active engagement in this forum has permitted USAID to exercise inter-donor leadership on mainstreaming conflict sensitivity, focusing attention on security sector reform, and responding to fragile states. CMM has taken the lead on the process of “tipsheet” production for the Development Assistance Committee of the CPDC, and contributed four tipsheets to the multi-donor network: Land and Conflict, Water and Conflict, Valuable Minerals and Conflict, and Forests and Conflict.
