Governance Uncovered is brought to you by the Governance and Local Development Institute at the University of Gothenburg, and supported by the Swedish Research Council.

This policy roundtable discussion was made possible through a grant project from the Carnegie Corporation of New York.

In this episode, we delved into the intricate governance, economic and security issues confronting post-Assad Syria. Our panelists examined how the fragmented landscape of governance, worsening economic conditions, and environmental challenges impact various communities and locales. The conversation also highlighted the vital roles that local elites and international organizations play in shaping the future of Syria.
