Peace & Security

The Foundation works in partnership with a number of organizations to identify the threats, driving forces and policy gaps that pose a threat to peace and security, and undermine good governance, the rule of law and respect for human rights. The Foundation provides substantive and technical assistance to Mr Annan in his role as the Chairman of the AU Panel of Eminent African Personalities, which continues to support the Kenya National Dialogue and Reconciliation process.
