Overview
In prolonged crises, economies do not simply stop. Businesses adapt, informal systems emerge, financial flows change and institutions fragment.
Understanding these dynamics is critical to designing realistic recovery strategies.
Our Work
Research and advisory work has examined how fragile economies can transition from crisis-driven economic activity towards more resilient and productive systems. Areas include:
- Private-sector resilience
- Financial-system recovery
- Institutional rebuilding
- SME growth
- Employment and livelihoods
- Investment mobilization
- Reconstruction
- Transition from humanitarian dependence towards economic recovery
Our Perspective
Recovery should begin before conflict formally ends. Protecting productive capacity, strengthening institutions and supporting viable businesses can help create the foundations for longer-term reconstruction.
