Monthly Digest on the AUPSC – January 2021
Date | January 2021
Senegal was the chair of the African Union (AU) Peace and security Council (PSC) in January. A total of four substantive sessions were convened during the month. While two of these sessions were country/region specific, the remaining two were thematic. Although Council’s initial programme of work anticipated a session on South Sudan to take place within the month, the session was postponed to later months. In terms of regional coverage, west and central Africa were the two regions that featured in PSC’s agenda during January.
