The international community must focus its efforts to support structures that will ensure a lasting peace. There is a need to better coordinate these activities and ensure these programs are complementary and collectively meet the needs of the host country, including the victim population. To be fully effective in a post-conflict situation, there is a need to react rapidly. ILAC will work closely with international peacekeepers, who assume de facto , if not de jure , involvement in law enforcement functions during a post-conflict situation. Based on its research and assessment, ILAC will serve as a locus of international legal assistance and domestic NGO involvement and facilitate the efforts of specialized agencies, NGOs, donor governments and other experts.
Countries emerging from domestic or international conflict are generally fragile.
It is crucial to develop a stable environment as soon as possible. One of the keys to a stable environment is a transparent and reliable judicial system. A stable environment also encourages financial investment by the international community. ILAC will provide an immediate and accurate assessment by competent experts of the judicial system. ILAC will make reasoned recommendations and help facilitate domestic and international experts to rapidly implement the recommendations.
