Iraq: Securing the Peace
An Institute Congressional Briefing.
America and its coalition partners now face the urgent and difficult challenge of securing the peace in Iraq.
On July 30 the U.S. Institute of Peace will sponsor a special foreign policy briefing on Capitol Hill to focus on the religious, security, political, and economic dimensions of this challenge and how best to address it. Moderated by Paul Stares, director of the Institute's Research and Studies Program, the briefing will feature presentations from a distinguished panel of Institute experts on Iraq and the challenges of post-conflict reconstruction.
