Abstract
The fight against ISIS in Iraq has weakened the terrorist group, which lost control of previously controlled stronghold areas. Despite the fact that ISIS is yet to be dismantled and defeated, the international community and the local government have now had the challenge of rebuilding a state in rubbles. Moreover, the authorities’ challenges also include regaining trust among citizens, who had ISIS as a service provider during the period they took over entire regions in Iraq. This paper provides insights into policy practices NGOs have built in Colombia during the protracted civil war against the FARCS that could be adopted and implemented in Iraq. These practices serve multiple purposes. On the one hand, they can aid the government in restoring peace, building trust among traumatized citizens, and strengthening governance in post-conflict Iraq. On the other, they have the long-term objective of combating further societal radicalization through extremists’ influences.
