The consultation was organized by the government of CAR with support from France, the ADB, the UNDP and the OECD. The Country Chapter will be available by the end of October 2009.
Preliminary findings from first three consultations
04-Jul-2009
The first three consultations on the Principles (Timor-Leste, Haiti, DRC) indicate that interpretations of statebuilding vary, but that in all cases, while free and fair elections were seen as a source of legitimacy, the performance of the state in delivering key services and the state’s “moral authority” are the key to legitimacy over time. On security, maintaining a credible rapid response was a consistent theme: A premature shift away from security concerns was raised as a danger in all cases. Summary of preliminary findings.
Afghanistan consultation held

Following a series of 34 bilateral interviews over May-June, the consultation gathered 50 participants, including 8 bilateral donors, the UN, NATO and international NGOs. Discussions were particularly rich on the implementation of Principles 1, 2, 3 and 5 given the important security constraints.
