    Berger, Axel / Sebastian Gsell / Zoryana Olekseyuk (2019)

    This policy brief provides an overview of the emerging policy debate about investment facilitation. We highlight that four key challenges need to be tackled in order to negotiate an Investment Facilitation Framework (IFF) in the WTO that supports sustainable development

22. Potential of blockchain technology for trade integration of developing countries

    

    Schwab, Jakob / Jan Ohnesorge (2019)

    Blockchain technology offers great potential for the sustainable trade integration of developing countries, through its tamper-proof storage of data. However, its implementation also poses challenges.

23. What do we know about post-conflict transitional justice from academic research: key insights for practitioners

    

    Fiedler, Charlotte / Karina Mross (2019)

    Can transitional justice (TJ) strengthen peace in post-conflict contexts?

24. How Brexit affects Least Developed Countries

    

    Olekseyuk, Zoryana / Israel Osorio Rodarte (2019)

    Regardless of the EU-UK deal, developing countries will suffer from Brexit due to the loss of preferences granted by different European treaties. Our simulation results illustrate a need for actions to mitigate the adverse effects on the economically vulnerable countries.

25. Towards a borderless Africa? Regional organisations and free movement of persons in West and North-East Africa

    

    Dick, Eva / Benjamin Schraven (2019)

    For decades, work has been ongoing at pan-African level to realise the vision of the free movement of persons as an integral part of a united Africa. This concept is to be implemented at the level of the African regions and yet it is there that it faces a range of internal and external challenges.

26. Supporting peace after civil war: what kind of international engagement can make a difference?

    

    Fiedler, Charlotte / Jörn Grävingholt / Karina Mross (2018)

    How can international actors effectively support peace after civil war? A disaggregated analysis of external engagement finds that international peacebuilding can clearly make a difference. Yet country contexts condition what types of support can be provided, and whether they are effective.

27. How addressing divisions on African migration inside the EU can strengthen transnational development

    

    Schöfberger, Irene (2018)

    Intra-EU policy negotiations are essential for the evolution of EU-Africa cooperation on migration. Growing divisions inside the EU have increased the focus on external borders. This paper argues that the EU needs to address these divisions in order to support African transnational development.

28. Boosting non-state climate action in the European Union

    

    Chan, Sander / Jacopo Bencini (2018)

    Current policies are inconsistent with international climate goals. More, and more effective, actions by non-state and subnational actors, such as businesses, cities and NGOs, could accelerate low-carbon and climate resilient transitions. This paper explores how the EU could strengthen such action.

29. A mountain worth climbing: reforming the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs

    

    Janus, Heiner / Silke Weinlich (2018)

    The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN-DESA) is a key multilateral organisation in development. However, DESA has yet to unlock its full potential in playing a politically relevant and analytically authoritative role in sustainable development.

30. Pro-poor climate risk insurance: the role of community-based organisations (CBOs)

    

    Matias, Denise Margaret / Raúl Fernández / Marie-Lena Hutfils / Maik Winges (2018)

    Insurance provides an opportunity to address ex-post climate risks. The relative flexibility and broader reach of mesoinsurance may tackle issues of accessibility and affordability of insurance for poor and vulnerable. Community-based organisations may be an appropriate vehicle for mesoinsurance.
