Regional Organizations and Their Role in Peace and Security examines how regional bodies such as the African Union (AU), European Union (EU), Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) contribute to maintaining peace and stability within their respective regions. It highlights their functions in conflict prevention, mediation, peacekeeping operations, and the promotion of democratic governance and human rights. The topic emphasizes how these organizations complement global institutions like the United Nations by responding more quickly and effectively to regional conflicts due to their proximity and understanding of local dynamics. Course objectives include enabling learners to understand the structure and functions of key regional organizations, analyze their roles in maintaining peace and security, evaluate their effectiveness in conflict resolution and peacebuilding, and develop critical skills in assessing regional approaches to international stability and cooperation.
