Given the rapidly transforming landscape of UN peace operations, the UN Policy Brief on A New Agenda for Peace called for a need to “undertake a reflection on the limits and future of peacekeeping in the light of the evolving nature of conflict with a view to enabling more nimble, adaptable and effective mission models…”. As the overwhelming focus on larger UN multidimensional missions is increasingly giving way to the long proposed spectrum of peace operations, this GPW session will delve into what role the UN, in partnership with other stakeholders, could most usefully play in the future and how a new spectrum of peace and security engagements could look like?
