UNSMIL (Libya): Building a new country

The aftermath of the conflict in Libya left a daunting set of responsibilities resting on the shoulders of the country’s new authorities. These include: providing public security and employing former revolutionary fighters; organizing elections and drafting a new constitution; creating a professional military and rebuilding its police force; addressing the human rights crimes of Libya’s past while promoting national reconciliation; controlling the spread of weapons; and revitalizing Libya’s oil-based economy.
