Abstract

This comparative analysis delves into the emerging challenges within the African Union's (AU) peace and security strategy, focusing on two prominent peacekeeping missions: the African Union-United Nations Hybrid Operation in Darfur (UNAMID) and the African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM). By evaluating their achievements, obstacles, and approaches, considering African Union dynamics and geopolitical factors, the study assesses variables such as logistical efficiency, funding autonomy, and mission objectives' attainment. The findings offer valuable insights into the effectiveness of AU peacekeeping operations and provide recommendations for future missions. By analyzing UNAMID and AMISOM strategies, identifying commonalities and differences, and addressing challenges related to funding, logistics, and African Union coordination, this analysis contributes to a broader understanding of peacekeeping practices in Africa. It emphasizes the need for effective collaboration, highlights the importance of stability, and offers recommendations to strengthen the African Union's peace and security strategy, ultimately fostering peace and stability in the African Union.
