What are the #economics of peace?

Today, @tilmanbrueck is holding a lecture at @unihh as part of a lecture series on #peacebuilding.

In it, he compares the economic costs of war with the efficacy of peacebuilding interventions and asks the question: Can money make peace?

[ISDC Berlin @ISDCBerlin]

@tilmanbrueck @unihh The key takeaways?

1️⃣ Peace is achieved through strong, shared institutions that regulate nonviolent interaction.

2️⃣ #Peace contributes substantially to inclusive development.

3️⃣ Sometimes it seems easier simply to alleviate the negative consequences of war than making peace.
