Introduction

At its 13th Ordinary Session held in Sirte, Libya, from 1st to 3rd July 2009, the Assembly of Heads of State and Government of the African Union (AU) adopted decision Assembly/AU/Dec.266(XIII) on the holding of a Special Session on the Consideration and Resolution of Conflicts in Africa.

The adoption of this decision is yet another demonstration of the commitment of the Africa’s leaders to address the scourge of conflicts. The Special Session will provide Africa’s leaders with an opportunity to review the ongoing efforts to address the challenges of peace and security on the continent. It will also give further impetus for the implementation of the decisions made by various AU policy organs on peace and security issues.
