National parks could be created in warzones / post-conflict areas

"One solution lies in the creation of public-private partnerships, in which governments (to a varying degree) transfer the management of a protected area 'under threat' to an NGO. The new park directors will typically be from outside the country (often white men) and are presented as 'neutral' actors merely 'enforcing the law' in a volatile landscape. The assumption is that such approaches will lead to well-governed spaces, which will have a positive trickle-down effect on political and economic outcomes in the wider area."
