Four years on from the Helsinki MoU, the MSR provides a framework for future policies and programs to consolidate peace and development in Aceh. It employs a comprehensive framework to identify post-conflict needs in Aceh and ways to most effectively respond to them. It considers issues from the perspective of livelihoods and the economy, politics, security and social cohesion, and governance and institutions. Within each of these areas, the report discusses existing programs, needs, challenges and constraints at the individual, community and macro levels. This allows for a consideration of the policies and programs that can build the foundations for sustainable peace and development in post-conflict Aceh.
The MSR was undertaken by the Aceh Peace-Reintegration Board (BRA), the National Development Planning Agency (BAPPENAS), AusAID, DFID, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, UNDP, the USAID-SERASI program and the World Bank between May 2008 and December 2009. It builds upon recent efforts by BRA and its partners to better plan and coordinate post-conflict programming, based on a shared understanding and strategic vision. The MSR has engaged a wide range of government, international and local stakeholders throughout the process.

The MSR team sincerely hopes you find the report to be a useful reference in your work.
