The Holdich Code

The Holdich Code, developed by Sir Thomas Holdich, is a set of principles used to guide effective border management and conflict prevention. It emphasizes clear demarcation of borders, understanding cultural and demographic factors, and fostering cooperation among neighboring countries. The code advocates for peaceful negotiations, respect for local populations, and practical solutions to border issues. Its goal is to reduce tensions and promote stability by combining diplomacy, recognition of diverse interests, and practical administration of border regions. Essentially, it’s a framework aimed at managing borders responsibly and peacefully to prevent disputes.
