Scalable Solutions in Fragile States
In 2030, an estimated 80 percent of the world’s extreme poor will live in
fragile states defined by violent conflict and rising vulnerability to natural disaster and climate change. Larry Cooley and Jonathan Papoulidis suggest in this report for the
Brookings Institution that the paradigm of promoting economic growth and poverty reduction through infrastructure development, skills training, knowledge transfer and financing will not work in the hardest places. In fragile states one needs to overcome huge deficits in relationships, norms, and trust between communities, networks, and institutions.
