Dialogue on Globalization, FES Briefing Paper, 8.http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/1422In December 2005, the United Nations created a high-profile Peacebuilding Commission (PBC) to serve as a dedicated institutional mechanism to fill the gap in the international architecture for post-conflict response. As such the PBC was mandated to link the political, security and economic functions of the United Nations in conflict and post-conflict situations. This paper analyzes the PBC’s own integrated strategies for peacebuilding in Sierra Leone and Burundi, through cumulative performance reports and views of practitioners.enUNPeacebuildingPeacebuilding CommissionAfricaJournal Article, Peer Reviewed
