This online seminar will investigate the UN Secretary General’s New Agenda for Peace (NA4P), and use it as a launchpad to interrogate the role of the United Nations as an effective actor in peace and security in the contemporary international environment. Speakers will reflect on role of the UN in the realm of the maintenance of peace and security amidst a considerable array of challenges to the workings of the body on practical and conceptual levels or both in theory and practice. The event is open to all.
