Abstract
In recent years, violent conflict has spiked significantly, affecting low-income countries in particular, and shaping an increasingly complex fragility landscape. By 2030, over half of the world’s extreme poor are expected to live in countries experiencing fragility, conflict, and violence (FCV). Conflict and poverty are strongly interconnected; not only does conflict compound experiences of poverty, but economic instability, resource scarcity, and state weakness also exacerbate conflict dynamics. In the Sahel, one of the poorest and most conflict affected regions in the world, countries additionally face high vulnerability to climate change and other shocks, and a growing influx of refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) is placing further strain on limited services and resources.
