Recognise the links between political, security and development objectives: The challenges faced by fragile states are multi-dimensional. The political, security, economic and social spheres are inter-dependent.

Importantly, there may be tensions and trade-offs between objectives, particularly in the short- term, which must be addressed when reaching consensus on strategy and priorities. For example, international objectives in some fragile states may need to focus on peacebuilding in the short-term, to lay the foundations for progress against the MDGs in the longer-term.

This underlines the need for international actors to set clear measures of progress in fragile states.

Within donor governments, a “whole of government” approach is needed, involving those responsible for security, political and economic affairs, as well as those responsible for development aid and humanitarian assistance. This should aim for policy coherence and joined-up strategies where possible, while preserving the independence, neutrality and impartiality of humanitarian aid.

Partner governments also need to ensure coherence between ministries in the priorities they convey to the international community.
