reactive-curative conflict after-care


Explanation:
The term for Nachsorge is after-care (in a clinical context)

The costs for reactive-curative conflict after-care are enourmous/huge/immense.

It sounds terrible in ENglish, but not worse than in German.

reactive, curative / post-conflict care


Explanation:
The first suggestion is just an alternative form of punctuation (as hyphenating the two words makes for slightly stilted English phrasing - which is not to say that it is wrong)

The second term is one I've certainly come across before when working in this field.

agree  Mary Worby: 'reactive and curative' might also work.

TURN THE SENTENCE AROUND


Explanation:
... The costs of reacting to and providing remedial post-conflict assistance/support are immense.

German has the same problems as Italian in relying on adjectives to communicate "complicated" concepts.

Hope this helps

neutral  Mary Worby: But surely you're not reacting to the post-conflict assistance. The post-conflict assistance is in reaction to the situation. (I think!)
