Fragility and Conflict

Many countries such as Iraq, Afghanistan and Mali are affected by fragility: The state lacks political legitimacy, no longer upholds the state monopoly on the use of force and does not provide basic public services for the citizenry. In development cooperation one focus is to overcome fragility in partner countries. Evaluations provide important insights in this regard, although fragile contexts pose challenges: Often the security situation prevents access to vulnerable groups or there is a lack of data.
