ABSTRACT
The rationale of this study is to investigate the extent to which the UN contributes to
conflict resolution in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. In this view, the study
involved secondary research by reviewing related studies such as seminar papers,
reports, published and unpublished works, television interviews, and conferences with
political leaders and conflict resolution specialists, as well as other related published
sources on conflict resolution and management, the United Nations, and the role or
contribution of MONUC-MONUSCO in peacekeeping in the DRC. The study places
itself under the scope of protracted social theory by Edward Azar, which states that
conflicts arise when communities are deprived of basic needs on the basis of
communal identity. However, the study discovers that the causes of the DRC conflict
are colonial legacies, Mobutu's poorly centralized administration, the presence of
natural resources in Congo, and neighboring countries' interests and occupation that
had serious consequences and was the worst humanitarian disaster since World War
II. The findings of this research demonstrate that MONUC-MONUSCO, the United
Nations peacekeeping mission, has implemented a variety of policies and methods to
improve its peacekeeping operations. Despite the fact that there are numerous actions
focused on maintaining peace with significant successful operations, the United
Nations continues to encounter problems and obstacles that have adversely affected
the efficacy and success of its peacekeeping missions. Therefore, the study concludes
that the United Nations failed to successfully resolve the DRC's 20-year conflict. In
order to enhance peacekeeping missions and build long-term peace in the DRC, the
research highlights the necessity of institutional and policy changes, along with
promises from parties, institutions, and involved players. In addition, the DRC
government, sub-regional agreements, and other international players must all work
together to guarantee a peaceful resolution and a definitive end to the DRC conflict,
indicating that this is not just the UN's duty.
