Since 2013, after years of near absence from the continent, a number of European countries have again deployed to UN peacekeeping missions in Africa. This paper draws lessons from this renewed engagement by European countries and Canada, both from their point of view, as well as from that of the UN Secretariat, UN field missions and other troop contributors. The text’s authors also explore how these bodies and other countries engaged in peacekeeping on the continent can best work together in a collective endeavor to improve UN peacekeeping’s efficiency and effectiveness.
