Abstract

This report is on the Organization of African Unity's (OAU) efforts to enhance its capacity in conflict management, specifically focusing on preventive diplomacy, conflict resolution, and peacekeeping in Africa as of 1995. It highlights the challenges faced by the OAU in operationalizing early warning systems and peacekeeping mechanisms due to lack of information flow, logistical constraints, and limited financial and institutional capacity.
