This event falls under the framework known as the &#8216;Oran Process,&#8217; an initiative launched by Algeria in 2013.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years, this seminar has evolved into a pivotal platform for discussion and reflection on peace and security issues across the continent, fostering collaborative African efforts. Since its inception in December 2013, the seminar has served as a dedicated African space to strengthen coordination between African members of the United Nations Security Council (A3) and members of the African Union&#8217;s Peace and Security Council. The goal is to unify the continent&#8217;s voice within the Security Council and safeguard African positions on various security matters.<\/p>\n<p>The 8th edition of the seminar, held in Oran from December 2nd to 4th, 2021, marked a significant turning point with the African Union&#8217;s decision to institutionalize the seminar under the name &#8216;Oran Process&#8217; and establish the city as its permanent headquarters. This platform has contributed to a clearer vision of African diplomacy within the United Nations, providing African delegations accredited to the international organization with a roadmap to amplify Africa&#8217;s voice and influence in Security Council decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>Eleven previous meetings have shared a common objective: to enhance the effectiveness of the African position. Each session has resulted in new recommendations and decisions aimed at strengthening the role of African members in the Security Council (A3+). The seminar is held annually before new members begin their terms in the Council, enabling the preparation of a coordinated African stance in formulating positions and defending common interests within the UN body.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming session will be held at the ministerial level, with participation from: members of the African Union Peace and Security Council, current, new, and former African members of the UN Security Council within the A3 mechanism. <em>Algeria plays a dual role in the conference, acting as both host and a key facilitator in promoting African unity and security initiatives.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\/?cat=1\">More Algeria articles on DZWatch<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dzwatch.dz\">DZWatch &#8211; Your News Portal<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oran, Algeria \u2013 The city of Oran is preparing to host the 12th edition of the High-Level Seminar on Peace and Security in Africa, scheduled for December 1st and 2nd, 2025.
