This project set out to prepare an authoritative account of the planning and execution of combat and stability operations in Iraq and to identify key issues that could affect Army plans and goals, operational concepts, doctrine, and other Title 10 responsibilities. The resulting body of work will interest those involved in organizing, training, and equipping military forces to plan for, deploy to, participate in, and support joint and coalition operations. Although focused primarily on Army forces and activities, the analysis also describes other aspects of joint and combined operations. RAND analysts collected the information in these volumes from many sources, including unit after-action reports, compilations of lessons learned, official databases, media reports, other contemporary records, and interviews with key participants in OIF. The results of this project are documented in multiple volumes, some not avail- able to the general public, as described below: • Decisive War, Elusive Peace: Operation IRAQI FREEDOM, MG-641-A, Richard E. Darilek, Walter L. Perry, Laurinda L. Rohn, and Jerry M. Sollinger, editors. This volume is an overview of the research findings. • After Saddam: Prewar Planning and the Occupation of Iraq, MG-642-A, Nora Bensahel, Olga Oliker, Keith Crane, Richard R. Brennan, Jr., Heather S. Gregg, Thomas Sullivan, and Andrew Rathmell. This volume is a treatment of the prewar planning for the postwar situation and of postwar military and re- construction activities. • Operation IRAQI FREEDOM: Executive Summary, MG-643-A, Walter L. Perry, Laurinda L. Rohn, and Jerry M. Sollinger. This volume, not available to the general public, presents an executive summary of the research findings. • Operation IRAQI FREEDOM: Volume I, The Genesis, MG-643/1-A, Jefferson P. Marquis, Walter L. Perry, David E. Mosher, Stephen T. Hosmer, Andrea Mejia, Richard E. Darilek, Jerry M. Sollinger, Vipin Narang, Charles W. Yost, John Halliday, and John R. Bondanella. This volume, not available to the gen- iii iv After Saddam: Prewar Planning and the Occupation of Iraq eral public, describes the political and military activities leading up to the opera- tion. • Operation IRAQI FREEDOM: Volume II, Defeating Saddam, MG-643/2-A, Bruce R. Pirnie, John Gordon IV, Richard R. Brennan, Jr., Forrest E. Morgan, Alexander C. Hou, and Charles W. Yost. This volume, not available to the gen- eral public, covers major combat operations in Iraq. • Operation IRAQI FREEDOM: Volume III, Managing the War, MG-643/3-A, Walter L. Perry, Edward O’Connell, Miranda Priebe, Forrest E. Morgan, Lowell H. Schwartz, and Alexander C. Hou. This volume, not available to the general public, describes the command and control (C2) of the forces and sup- porting operations. • Operation IRAQI FREEDOM: Volume IV, Prewar Planning and the Occupation of Iraq, MG-643/4-A, Nora Bensahel, Olga Oliker, Keith Crane, Richard R. Brennan, Jr., Heather S. Gregg, Thomas Sullivan, and Andrew Rathmell. This volume, not available to the general public, describes the prewar planning for the postwar situation and postwar military and reconstruction activities. • Operation IRAQI FREEDOM: Volume V, Sustaining the Force, MG-643/5-A, Eric Peltz, David Kassing, Jerry M. Sollinger, Marc Robbins, Kenneth J. Girar- dini, Peter Schirmer, Robert Howe, and Brian Nichiporuk. This volume, not available to the general public, covers the mobilization and sustainment of the forces. This report provides an unclassified treatment of the post–major combat mili- tary and stabilization activities. It begins by examining prewar planning for postwar Iraq, in order to establish what U.S. policymakers expected the postwar situation to look like and what their plans were for stabilization. The report then examines the role of U.S. military forces after major combat officially ended on May 1, 2003. Fi- nally, the report examines civilian efforts at reconstruction, focusing on the activities of the Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA) and its efforts to rebuild structures of governance, security forces, economic policy, and essential services prior to June 28, 2004, the day that CPA dissolved and transferred authority to the Iraqi Interim Gov- ernment. The research for this volume was completed in September 2004 and the final draft was submitted in October 2004. The purpose of this analysis is to find out where problems occurred and to sug- gest possibilities to improve planning and operations in the future. The results of such analysis can seem therefore to be overly focused on the negative. This should not be taken to mean that no good was done. In fact, dedicated U.S. and coalition personnel, both military and civilian, engaged in many positive and constructive ac- tivities, individually and collectively. That this analysis does not highlight all those activities should not in any way detract from their value. Our focus, however, re- mains on finding ways to improve.

  • Nigeria's Renewal: Delivering Inclusive Growth in Africa's Largest Economy
    McKinsey Global Institute McKinsey Global Institute Nigeria’s renewal: Delivering renewal: Nigeria’s inclusive largest growth economy in Africa’s July 2014 Nigeria’s renewal: Delivering inclusive growth in Africa’s largest economy The McKinsey Global Institute The McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), the business and economics research arm of McKinsey & Company, was established in 1990 to develop a deeper understanding of the evolving global economy. Our goal is to provide leaders in the commercial, public, and social sectors with the facts and insights on which to base management and policy decisions. MGI research combines the disciplines of economics and management, employing the analytical tools of economics with the insights of business leaders. Our “micro-to-macro” methodology examines microeconomic industry trends to better understand the broad macroeconomic forces affecting business strategy and public policy. MGI’s in-depth reports have covered more than 20 countries and 30 industries. Current research focuses on six themes: productivity and growth; natural resources; labour markets; the evolution of global financial markets; the economic impact of technology and innovation; and urbanisation. Recent reports have assessed job creation, resource productivity, cities of the future, the economic impact of the Internet, and the future of manufacturing. MGI is led by three McKinsey & Company directors: Richard Dobbs, James Manyika, and Jonathan Woetzel. Michael Chui, Susan Lund, and Jaana Remes serve as MGI partners. Project teams are led by the MGI partners and a group of senior fellows, and include consultants from McKinsey & Company’s offices around the world. These teams draw on McKinsey & Company’s global network of partners and industry and management experts.

U.S. Joint Forces Command (USJFCOM) conducted a thorough search and discovered one hundred eighty-seven (187) pages of documents responsive to your request. We are releasing a partial copy of this information: portions of pages 47-51 are being withheld under Exemption 1; portions of pages 140-141 are being withheld under Exemption 2; and portions of pages 17-22 and 140 are being withheld under Exemption 6. Exemption 1 pertains to information specifically authorized by an Executive order to be kept secret in the interest of national defense or foreign policy that is properly classified pursuant to such Executive order. Exemption 2 pertains to internal information the release of which would constitute a risk of circumvention of a legal requirement.

At a time in which global forced displacement, at nearly 70 million, is at its highest level since these numbers have been recorded, it is disheartening that the administration is proposing a reduction in humanitarian aid of more than $3 billion, or more than one-third of the amount the United States is expected to spend on such aid in this fiscal year. Such cuts would have devastating impacts on civilians at grave risk in countries experiencing conflicts or natural disasters, and we urge you to sustain and even augment the current levels of refugee and humanitarian aid.
