This thesis evaluates the effectiveness of the United Nations Organisation Stabilisation Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) in addressing the conflict in the DRC. Through a comprehensive analysis of MONUSCO's performance using established theoretical frameworks and success parameters for UN missions, the study highlights the mission's achievements and shortcomings. By focusing on a single mission, one can thoroughly study the circumstances surrounding the peacekeeping operation, thus allowing a complete understanding of the chosen parameters. Despite some strategic successes, MONUSCO faced significant challenges, including inadequate resources, external interference, and ineffective diplomatic efforts. The findings demonstrate that understanding these factors is essential when analysing mission effectiveness, as they directly impact the outcome and the interpretation of the results.
