Fragile States
Post-conflict and fragile states need special attention and dedicated resources. They seek progress on stabilization and macroeconomic reforms, paving the way for debt relief, reengagement with the international donor community, and a return to growth. They need significant and sustained assistance to rebuild core institutions and rehabilitate vital services and basic infrastructure.
The emergence of numerous RMCs from periods of conflict and decline makes a compelling case for renewed and deeper Bank engagement. The Bank will particularly assist countries in post-crisis and post-conflict transition to move forward towards more stable political and economic development. It will work together with others, including through co-financing. The Bank’s new Fragile States Facility sets out a comprehensive operational and financial framework, focussing on providing supplemental funding for priority investments, arrears clearance, and targeted capacity-building support. The framework also establishes a clear performance assessment mechanism and is supported by the creation of a new Fragile States Unit.
