multi-stakeholder partnerships in post-conflict reconstruction

Dr Kostovicova is part of a consortium working on the Framework 7- funded project: 'Multi-stakeholder Partnerships in Post-Conflict Reconstruction: The Role of the European Union'. The Project investigates whether, how, and under what conditions multistakeholder partnerships can positively impact on human security and thus, facilitate non-violence and long-term peace, providing a productive framework for relations between local actors and external actors, including third party mediators and international organisations.
