DS Researcher Wins Major Academic Award
Dr. Hassine demonstrated how housing and property rights can be secured in the aftermath of conflicts through his careful analysis of institutional frameworks and procedures, including mediation and dispute settlement mechanisms. His study is a pioneering work, which substantially enhances the understanding of the important role which the resolution of property claims has played in post-conflict peace building and will continue to play in these and other settings, including post-disaster situations, and underscores the vision of a world were refugees and displaced persons can return to their homes.
