Description The fall of the Assad regime ended more than six decades of authoritarian rule in Syria and opened an era of remarkable renewal. Today, the country has achieved what many thought impossible: a functioning state, ministries and courts back in operation, embassies reopened, and billions in investment pledged. A nation once designated a State Sponsor of Terrorism has joined the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS, acceded to the Global IHL Initiative, and pledged to destroy its remaining chemical weapons. Charting Syria’s Future examines this historic moment, showing how a country many feared would relapse into civil war has instead laid the foundations for durable stability.
But the work is not done. Syria, together with its international partners, must now build on hard-won gains before complacency or renewed violence forecloses the options this moment has opened. Written for policymakers and all those invested in Syria’s renewal, this book pioneers a coherent path toward a future the Syrian people want and deserve.
Spanning eight policy domains critical to Syria’s stabilization—promoting security sector reform and minority protection, designing a disability justice framework, strengthening Syrian civil society, reintegrating refugees and IDPs, rebuilding digital public infrastructure, engaging external stakeholders through diplomacy, and leveraging the removal of sanctions—Charting Syria’s Future presents an achievable strategic framework for Syria’s recovery and renewal.
