THE AFRICAN UNION AND ITS CONFLICT RESOLUTION APPARATUS

ABSTRACT

This paper reflects on the role of the African Union in implementation of its conflict resolution apparatus. The emerging picture is that African leaders are taking responsibilities for making, building and keeping peace in Africa. They recognize that the days of non – interference and expecting the world to resolve conflict situations created by them are over. The AU would achieve results if member states are more committed to removing challenges faced by the organization. The most relevant include the poor commitment of some African leaders to positive peace, the regional organization is still underfunded as the former OAU and problem of weak national armies in some states comprises efficiency of peace support operations.
