Winning "Hearts and Minds" in Afghanistan: Assessing the Effectiveness of Development Aid in COIN Operations
Development assistance is becoming an increasingly important tool to “win hearts and minds” and promote stability in counterinsurgency (COIN) operations. Given its centrality to COIN doctrine and strategy, there is still a surprisingly weak evidence base for the effectiveness of aid as a COIN “weapons system.” The objective of this conference is to help address this evidence gap. The 1022nd Wilton Park Conference will facilitate interaction and learning between policymakers, practitioners and researchers interested in the relationship between aid and stabilization in Afghanistan as well as in COIN contexts more generally.
