18.Partnerships and Financing of PSOs in Africa: IPSS-APN Workshop at the African Union (AU)
Towards a stronger UN-AU partnership in PSOs: On 6 July 6, 2017, the Institute for Peace and Security Studies (IPSS) and the New York-based Social Science Research Council (SSRC) organized a workshop at the African Union (AU) on "Partnerships and Financing of PSOs in Africa." The workshop aimed to explore gaps in the management of Peace Support Operations (PSOs) on the continent, by assessing current collaborations and financing arrangements. "Based on the trends and subject to receiving 25% of the peace fund from member states, the AU will be able to finance operations that last for 6 months and involve about 10,000 personnel; limiting the need to collaborate only to missions that require combat operations and with no exit strategy in sight," Dr. Okeke said.
