As President of the UN Security Council, Denmark is shedding extra light on the future of UN peace operations. Under the leadership of the Danish foreign minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Denmark has invited Council members and the wider UN membership to a High-Level Open Debate on ‘Advancing Adaptability in UN Peace Operations‘.
For over 75 years, UN peace operations have been a remarkable expression of international solidarity. Deployed to conflicts across the globe – with mandates to support peace agreements, protect civilians, reinforce rule of law and bolster inclusive governance – they are an indispensable tool to maintain stability and build lasting peace.
