In many conflict-affected countries, expenditure
on security operations and humanitarian assistance
dominates donor support, with long-term development
in general and education in particular taking a back seat.
Estimates suggest that in 2008 education accounted for
only 2% of total humanitarian aid, or US$237 million.
In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, US$5 million,
only 1% of humanitarian aid, supported education
interventions in 2007, far short of the US$27 million
identified as a minimum national requirement in this
sector. The problem is not that the international
community invests too much on security and alleviating
hunger. It is that too little is invested in other areas that
are no less important to post-conflict reconstruction.
Donors increasingly recognize the importance of longterm social and economic reconstruction in conflict and
post-conflict situations. However progress towards a
policy framework linking short-term humanitarian and
long-term development assistance, has been limited.
