Le rôle du financement de la MONUSCO sur l'autonomie journalistique à Radio OkapiFaye, Marie Renée 19 September 2019 (has links)
Notre étude porte sur l’autonomie journalistique de Radio Okapi, une radio communautaire créée et gérée par la MONUSCO avec la collaboration de la Fondation Hirondelle. Nous voulons savoir si les journalistes qui y travaillent sont autonomes et libres dans leurs pratiques. La théorie de l’économie politique des médias, tout comme la question du rôle des journalistes, nous ont été d’une grande utilité. La démarche qualitative est notre principale méthode de recherche. Nous avons procédé à des entrevues semi-dirigées avec des journalistes de Radio Okapi, des agents de la Fondation Hirondelle. A la fin de notre recherche, nous pouvons dire que les journalistes de Radio Okapi ne sont pas entièrement autonomes et ne peuvent pas donc assumer entièrement leur rôle de média de chien de garde. Cette recherche permet d’en savoir plus sur les radios que créent les Nations Unies dans le cadre de ses missions de paix.

La protection des civils par les opérations de maintien de la paix de l’ONU : le cas de la MONUC/MONUSCO en République démocratique du Congo (1999-2015) / Protection of civilians by UN peacekeeping operations : the case of MONUC/MONUSCO in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (1999-2015)Di Razza, Namie 15 January 2016 (has links)
Les échecs des opérations de maintien de la paix de l’ONU au Rwanda et en Bosnie ont grandement entamé l’image des Casques bleus, impuissants face aux massacres et atrocités dont ils étaient témoins. Or depuis 1999, la « protection des civils » a connu une expansion et une normalisation institutionnelles au sein des Nations unies, tant dans la doctrine que dans les pratiques. En l’invoquant comme la tâche prioritaire des opérations de paix, le Conseil de sécurité et le Secrétariat se sont investis dans un développement essentiel du concept de protection des civils. De même, les activités des peacekeepers sur le terrain ont confirmé ces inflexions. La Mission des Nations unies en République démocratique du Congo (MONUC, puis MONUSCO), laboratoire des pratiques de protection depuis 15 ans, a démontré une hyperactivité remarquable pour protéger les populations. De nombreux outils et mécanismes spécifiques ont été développés pour renforcer les capacités de réponse aux besoins de protection, et les soldats de la paix ont démontré qu’ils pouvaient exploiter un pan immense de pratiques opérationnelles pour protéger les civils, de la simple présence dissuasive aux opérations offensives contre les groupes armés. Cette thèse démontre les évolutions conceptuelles et pratiques qui sont advenues et met en lumière les facteurs influençant la mise en œuvre concrète de cette politique de protection, désormais centrale dans le maintien de la paix de l’ONU. Elle explore la dynamique institutionnelle d’une part, et la dynamique politique d’autre part, dessinant toutes deux les contours des pratiques de protection, et pouvant tantôt réduire, tantôt accroître leur efficience. / The failures of UN peacekeeping operations in Rwanda and Bosnia greatly eroded the aura of Blue helmets, appearing as helpless witnesses of massacres and atrocities. Nevertheless, since 1999, “protection of civilians” went through an institutional expansion and normalization within the UN, both in doctrine and practice. The Security Council and the Secretariat raised it as the priority task of peace operations, and engaged in a critical development of the concept of protection of civilians. The United Nations Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUC, then MONUSCO), which has been the laboratory for practices of protection for the last 15 years, displayed a remarkable hyperactivity to protect people. Various specific tools and mechanisms were developed in order to strengthen the Mission capability to respond to protection needs. Similarly, UN peacekeepers proved that they could handle a large range of operational practices to protect civilians, from simple deterrent presence to offensive operations against armed groups. This thesis demonstrates the conceptual and practical evolutions that occurred, and clarifies the factors that influence the concrete implementation of this protection policy, now central to UN peacekeeping. It explores the institutional dynamics and the political dynamics that both delineate the outline of the practice of protection, and that can reduce or increase their efficiency.

[en] CHALLENGES OF OF CHILD PROTECTION IN UN PEACE OPERATIONS: THE ROLE OF CHILD PROTECTION ADVISERS IN THE CONTEXT OF MONUSCO / [pt] OS DESAFIOS DA PROTEÇÃO INFANTIL EM OPERAÇÕES DE PAZ DAS NAÇÕES UNIDAS: O PAPEL DOS CONSELHEIROS DE PROTEÇÃO DE CRIANÇAS NO CONTEXTO DA MONUSCOARIANNE KERN DE DUTRA CORIA 09 May 2019 (has links)
[pt] A agenda de proteção de crianças é um tema relevante em Missões de Paz das Nações Unidas. Desenvolvida a partir de 1996, a agenda temática do Conselho de Segurança surgiu com objetivo de proteger menores de 18 anos dos impactos dos conflitos armados. Os Conselheiros de Proteção de Crianças (CPA) surgem com o propósito de materialização dessa agenda nas missões multidimensionais da ONU. Com base na análise da agenda internacional construída ao longo das duas últimas décadas no âmbito do Conselho de Segurança da ONU para garantir a proteção de crianças em situações de conflitos armados, o objetivo do presente trabalho é analisar a forma como tais mecanismos de proteção são traduzidos no trabalho do CPA, considerando, assim, os limites desse ferramental. Será analisado o caso dos CPAs na Missão de Estabilização das Nações Unidas na República Democrática do Congo (MONUSCO), já que é missão mais antiga e com maior número de CPAs atualmente. Dentre os principais achados da análise está o fato dos CPAs que trabalham no país possuírem um mandato muito extenso em um contexto local muito complexo, e no qual os recursos financeiros e humanos são escassos. Ademais, o trabalho desenvolve a necessidade de problematização da compreensão da criança nos moldes modernos, no qual a criança é entendida como apolítica, vulnerável e vítima nos contextos de conflitos armados. / [en] The child protection agenda is a relevant theme in United Nations Peace Missions. Developed since 1996, the Security Council s thematic agenda emerged with the aim of protecting children under the age of 18 from the impacts of armed conflict. The Child Protection Advisers (CPAs) come up with the purpose of
materializing this agenda in the UN multidimensional missions. Based on the analysis of the international agenda built over the last two decades within the framework of the UN Security Council to ensure the protection of children in situations of armed conflict, the objective of this work is to analyze how these
protection mechanisms are translated in the work of the CPA, thus considering the limits of this tools. Will be analyzed the case of the CPAs in the United Nations Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUSCO), since it is the oldest mission with the highest number of CPAs currently. Among the
main findings of the analysis is the fact that CPAs working at DRC have a very large mandate in a very complex local context, and in which human and financial resources are scarce. In addition, the work develops the need to problematize the child s understanding in modern ways, in which the child is understood as apolitical, vulnerable and victim in the context of armed conflicts.

The United Nations Does (Not) Wage War : The Role of Hostility and Commitment in UN Peace Enforcement MissionsWennberg, Sofia January 2019 (has links)
While there exists a considerable body of literature on the development of UN peace operations: from traditional peacekeeping operations to today’s robust enforcement missions; scrutinizing their efficiency and the challenges they face – little attention has been paid to why various levels of military action are used by a mission. This study addresses this research gap by comparing three UN enforcement operations: MONUSCO in the Democratic Republic of Congo, UNMISS in South Sudan, and MINUSMA in Mali. This study specifically investigates how the level of hostility in the conflict and commitment from the troop-contributing countries affect the level of enforcement actions taken in each conflict. The arguments are tested using a Structured Focused Comparison. The study finds that increased levels of hostility generated an increase in the level of enforcement in all three cases studied, while the level of commitment did not have the same distinct effect.

Inteligência em operações de paz da ONU : um estudo de caso da MONUSCOKuele, Giovanna Marques January 2017 (has links)
Esta dissertação trata da inteligência na Missão das Nações Unidas na República Democrática do Congo (MONUSCO). Está dividida em três partes. Na primeira, contextualiza-se a pesquisa de inteligência em operações de paz nos Estudos Estratégicos Internacionais, abordando sua relevância, principais conceitos e teorias, bibliografia acadêmica e documental. Na segunda parte, apresenta-se o artigo científico, focado no caso da MONUSCO. Para avaliar se e como a inteligência contribuiu para aprimorar a efetividade da cadeia de comando e controle (C2) na missão, procedeu-se a análise do ponto de vista organizacional e funcional das estruturas de inteligência (G2, JMAC e JOC). As evidências foram colhidas por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com o staff da MONUSCO, de visitas técnicas à sede da missão em Goma e às localizações de Kanybayonga, Kiwanja e Rutshuru, da análise de relatórios e documentos da ONU contendo dados não estruturados, bem como por meio de revisão da literatura especializada. As conclusões da pesquisa indicaram que a inteligência contribuiu para aprimorar as estruturas de C2 na medida em que teve um papel crítico nos níveis tático (neutralização de grupos armados) e operacional (compartilhamento de informações e fornecimento de consciência situacional para a missão). Todavia, ela teve um impacto menor no nível estratégico, devido a uma lacuna persistente entre a missão em campo e a sede da ONU em Nova Iorque. Na terceira parte da dissertação, propõe-se uma agenda para pesquisas futuras, destacando o estudo do papel da ONU (e das operações de paz) no provimento de segurança na ordem internacional em transformação. / This thesis deals with intelligence in the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO). It is divided in three parts. The first one contextualizes the research on intelligence peacekeeping in the scope of the International Strategic Studies by presenting its relevance, its main concepts and theories, and its specialized literature and documents. The second (and main) part of the document is comprised by the article itself, a case study of intelligence in MONUSCO. The organization of the mission-related intelligence structures (G2, JMAC, and JOC) and their practices were analyzed in order to assess if and how intelligence may have effectively contributed to MONUSCO. Evidence was collected through interviews with MONUSCO staff, technical visits to the mission’s headquarters in Goma, to the locations of Kanybayonga, Kiwanja, and Rutshuru, UN reports and documents containing unstructured data, and specialized literature review. The findings indicated that intelligence contributed to improve C2 at MONUSCO by playing a critical role at the tactical (neutralizing armed groups) and operational (sharing information and providing mission-wide situational awareness) levels. Nonetheless, it had a lesser impact at the strategic level, due to a persistent gap between the field mission and the UN structures in New York. The final part suggests an agenda for future research projects, highlighting the study of the UN role (and peacekeeping) in providing international security in the changing international order.

United Nations Peacekeeping Operations as a Potential Hindrance to Peace in the Great Lakes Region of Africa: A case of the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUSCO) : MONUSCO as a Subconscious Spoiler in the Congolese Peace Process / United Nations Peacekeeping at a Crossroads in the DRC : MONUSCO Sets Precedents for UN Stabilization MissionsLopor, Innocent Amaese January 2016 (has links)
As the Congolese conflict marks the 20th year, and the peace process 17 years, the apparent question is why is the search for peace in the DRC proving elusive? Spoilers and other impediments to the peace process in the DRC have been studied and UN peacekeepers have been operational in the country for nearly seventeen years, but the conflict continues. This study therefore seeks to understand the potential of UN peacekeeping to hinder the peace process in the DRC, and the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) constitutes a study case. MONUSCO has been in operation for six years today succeeding the United Nations Organization Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUC), and is still operating. Inasmuch as it looks early to gauge whether MONUSCO is contributing to progress or hindering the peace process in the DRC, this study focuses on the practices of UN peacekeepers under MONUSCO and their potential to delay peace initiatives. Using secondary data as the main source of information, i.e., books, articles, journals, news, UN reports and resolutions, triangulation and Game Theory, especially the Prisoners’ Dilemma Analytical Framework derived from the Prisoners’ Dilemma Game Matrix, this study finds that the Stabilization Mission is inconsistent, i.e., UN peacekeepers are performing controversial tasks: use of force to protect civilians, engaging in battles to neutralize armed militias and investigation of war crimes and human rights, tasks that have generated resentment from the FARDC/Kinshasa government and the armed militias, making the search for peace a one actors responsibility [MONUSCO’s task]. A clear indication that MONUSCO is hindering the peace process in the DRC. The thematic analysis details five (5) themes and indicates that; cooperation is problematic, use of force to protect civilians is controversial, there is a mismatch between doctrine and practice, i.e., deviation of UN peacekeeping from the basic principles, the justice dilemma, and an understanding of peace as absence of war and fighters. The thesis concludes that practices of MONUSCO need revisiting, dialogue should be encouraged, revision of peacekeeping principles and accurate timing of interventions, so as to enhance progress in the search for peace in DRC. / <p>This thesis is a true representation of my artistic academic work, written passiantely and informed with logical interpretation of other authors' perepectives, i.e., it is a deskstudy. It took me 10 weeks to produce this piece of work which adds to the ongoing debate on the Congolese process and UN peacekeeping in the DRC and other parts of the world. Written in Linnaeus University, Småland Sweden. </p> / Masters Thesis

Decelerated Integration: A Qualitative Case Study of the Disarmament, Demobilization & Reintegration of the March 23 Movement in the Democratic Republic of CongoLidegran, Filip January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this thesis is to study the proposed Disarmament, Demobilization & Reintegration (DDR) policies of the Government of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUSCO) and the recommendations of the Rift Valley Institute in the wake of the surrender of the M23 Movement, an armed rebel faction, in December 2013. The study seeks to assess the capability of these policies to address the grievances of the members of the M23 Movement and whether they will bring lasting peace between the rebels and the Government.To assess these policies, a content analysis of five key documents is conducted. The analysis uses a theoretical framework inspired by the work of John Paul Lederach (1997) on Conflict Transformation and that of Stina Torjesen (2013) on reintegration of former combatants. The framework explores the content of the policies according to four “pillars” of successful DDR – actors, context, timeframe & action.The study concludes that while efforts for political integration has had some success, the cause for the M23 rebellion was economic grievances which has not yet been addressed. Furthermore, a lack of political will has delayed the implementation of the demobilization and reintegration of ex-combatants, which bears a resemblance to previous attempts at DDR. A new amnesty law that exempts perpetrators of gross human rights violations has had some success in ending impunity for the worst offences. MONUSCO has been criticized for partiality towards the National Government, and its increasingly forceful stance in the conflict has persuaded some groups to submit to DDR while others have intensified their aggressions on UN personnel.

Mind the gap! : The decision making gap between the Security Council and the Troop Contributing Countries; when "all necessary means" is not enoughAbrahamsson, Zarah January 2015 (has links)
This two part thesis investigates the lack of definition of the wording “all necessary means” and how it ultimately impacts a decision making gap between the Security Council and the troop contributing countries regarding the use of force in UN peace operations. The assumptions are based on Reus-Smit’s constructivist theory, emphasizing that both politics and international law needs to be studied with a holistic approach in order to understand how the two realms shape each other. The assumption of this thesis is that “all necessary means” is not providing enough guidance to constrain the TCCs to behave as sovereign, equal actors in an anarchical structure. The second part of the thesis is a within-case-study of MONUC/MONUSCO, and the Security Council resolution 2098 that established the Force Intervention Brigade.
