IPI, in partnership with the United Nations Department of Peace Operations, McGill University’s Max Bell School of Public Policy, the Folke Bernadotte Academy (FBA), the Challenges Forum for Peace Operations, and the Permanent Missions of Canada and the Kingdom of the Netherlands to the United Nations, co-hosted a closed-door hybrid workshop, “Keeping Protection in Focus: Emerging Research on Protection and Peace Operations,” on May 22nd.
Over more than two and a half decades, there has been significant normative and operational progress in protecting civilians through UN peace operations. There is a wide range of policies, guidance, and good practice to support mandate implementation, as well as a rich body of evidence indicating the effectiveness that peace operations can have in preventing and responding to violence against civilians. At the same time, changes and uncertainty in the global peace and security landscape are challenging the nature of collective security more broadly, with implications for UN peace operations and their ability to protect civilians. Against this backdrop, and amidst an ongoing review on the future of all forms of peace operations, prior assumptions and approaches need to be tested to ensure their continued applicability, and new ways of working need to be considered.
This interactive workshop will present the findings of a series of policy briefs published by IPI, covering a diverse range of issues on how to strengthen protection by UN and UN-supported peace operations. This workshop will feature presentations by some of the authors and an interactive exchange with respondents. Participants for the event will be member state delegates, UN and AU officials, civil society representatives, and other scholars, researchers, and experts. The event will be hybrid and held under the Chatham House rule of non-attribution.
