In January 2025, the African Union (AU) Peace and Security Council (PSC) undertook its activities under the chairship of the Republic of Cote d’Ivoire. During the month, the Council had a scheduled program of work consisting of seven substantive sessions covering eight agenda items, with only one session dedicated to conflict-specific situation. The Provisional Program of Work (PPoW) underwent two revisions during the month. As a result, the Council held five substantive sessions covering seven agenda items, with only one addressing conflict-specific situation. All sessions except one held at the ministerial level were held at the ambassadorial level. The Council also had an Open Session to commemorate the third Africa Day of Peace and Reconciliation.
