| Summary: | This note describes the Disarmament and
Demobilization (D&D) of combatants from all warring
parties in January 2002, which marked the official end of
the civil war in Sierra Leone. D&D was part of a larger
disarmament, demobilization, and reintegration (DDR)
program, implemented by the Government of Sierra Leone with
the support of the World Bank, together with other
international institutions and Nongovernmenal Organizations
(NGOs). The experience of Sierra Leone is discussed, as
well as, how the Bank can play a role in post-conflict
transitions, complementing political and security efforts of
client governments and the international community. |
