Abstract
This Discussion Paper reports on a workshop on 'Linking Relief and Development', held at
IDS, Sussex in March 1994. Development and relief often operate at cross-purposes, with
different objectives, cultures and modes of operation. Change which leads to mutual
reinforcement of the two is an attractive, even a necessary idea; though problematic in the
growing number of cases where emergencies are related to conflict. A simple linear
sequence, 'relief-rehabilitation-development' is not appropriate: more dynamic models are
required, which recognize the complexity and diversity of livelihood strategies. And in
selecting interventions, analysis is needed of cost, sequencing and institutional issues.
