When conflicts are resolved and peace finally takes hold in a country battered by years of strife, the donors who were there to help in the war years tend to melt away – just when their help is really needed to support people who have a proper chance to secure their futures. Look at Liberia, Sierra Leone or Angola, where millions of people are returning home, only to find their farms destroyed, their livestock gone, their land inaccessible because of landmines and no infrastructure or employment opportunities to tide them over. They still depend on our support now, just as they did when they were living in camps as refugees or internally displaced.
