The Aswan Peace and Development report is a forward-looking, action-oriented and thought-provoking conversation starter. It aims to shed light on new and emerging systemic threats, challenges and risks to peace, security and development in the wake of the pandemic, and identify concrete and action-oriented recommendations to accelerate the shift from crisis management to prevention and resilience-building. It also pinpoints priority areas of reform and proposes approaches to strengthen coherence and complementarity between humanitarian, development and peace actors towards sustainable peace and development.
