Background Paper – Performance of Peace Operations
How should we assess and improve the performance of peace operations? This is the topic of the third dialogue strand of the Virtual Challenges Annual Forum 2020 led by the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI).
UN peace operations are under growing pressure to increase performance and enhance mandate delivery. This background paper assesses recent research into the effectiveness and performance of peace operations and new UN initiatives for internal monitoring, evaluation and related data management systems.
The Background Paper is authored by Cedric de Coning, Research Professor at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI) and Jenny Nortvedt Junior Research Fellow with the Peace, Conflict and Development Research Group at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs (NUPI).
