Cross-Border Infrastructure Projects and Regional Peacebuilding

Abstract

Cross-border infrastructure projects have increasingly become focal points for regional cooperation and peacebuilding efforts. This scholarly article explores the intricate relationship between cross-border infrastructure development and the promotion of regional peacebuilding initiatives. It investigates how such projects facilitate economic integration, foster trust among neighboring states, and mitigate conflict potentials in volatile regions. Through an interdisciplinary lens, this article assesses the impact of cross-border infrastructure on regional stability and explores avenues for policymakers to leverage these projects for sustainable peacebuilding.
