support and provide advice on how to ensure that the assistance of
the inteational community is adequate, coherent, well coordinated
and effective. This experience constitutes a new form of
inteational support to countries emerging from conflicts within
multilateral institutions. The lessons leaed from their work are
particularly relevant in the context of the increased role of the
