From barriers to bridges – Promoting stabilisation and peace at borders in Africa |
Project Detail |
Border Governance in Africa: Support to the African Union Border Programme (AUBP) Most of Africas borders were drawn in colonial times and maintained after the independence of African states. Many of them are legally not clearly defined and not adequately demarcated with border pillars resulting in territorial grey areas that give rise to lawless spaces and conflicts over natural resources. The African Union (AU) is aware of the issue and sees insufficiently defined borders as a threat to peace, security and state legitimacy and an obstacle to regional integration. The AU Border Programme aims to promote clearly defined, internationally recognised and locally accepted state borders and viable cross-border cooperation. These measures may prevent conflict and increase security, stability and development in border regions. Objective Better defined borders contribute to peacebuilding and stability in border regions in Africa. |
