Description

As the international community confronts new waves of conflict, displacement, and political instability, the role of UN peacekeeping is under renewed examination. Long considered a pillar of international security and post-conflict recovery, today’s missions often face constrained mandates, limited resources, and increasingly complex operating environments.This spotlight conversation will explore whether UN peacekeeping is still a viable instrument for maintaining international peace and security—or whether the system requires fundamental reform. What have recent missions revealed about the UN’s ability to respond to modern conflicts? How can peacekeeping adapt to new geopolitical realities while staying true to its founding principles? And what responsibilities do member states bear in shaping the missions of tomorrow?Through the lens of legal expertise, state-building experience, and diplomatic engagement, this session offers a critical, forward-looking discussion on how the UN can reclaim relevance and effectiveness in its peacekeeping role.
