An excerpt from the thesis:
The study established that the paucity of some deliberate or careful steps that need to be taken to consolidate and sustain peace generally may be the greatest challenges to PKO in Africa. These include the need for robust and timely operational mandate, and where or when desirable, effective enforcement of arms embargo. Others include rapid deployment capability, commitment and cooperation of the belligerents and understanding the sensitivity of would-be recipients, amongst other essential details.
